Leena Pihanurmi criticized a multi-page interview published in Seura magazine, in which Demokraatti journalist Susanna Luikku interviewed Vertti Kiukas from Soste ry. According to Pihanurmi, Kiukas expected the leftist government to continue supporting 700 social and health organizations with hundreds of millions of tax euros. Pihanurmi wrote that the number of organization workers and volunteers varied in different Soste sources. He stated that Kiukas announced the number as 1.5 million, whereas earlier it had been reported as 550,000 and 204,271. Pihanurmi characterized the content of the interview as threats and baseless complaints. He claimed it aimed to secure the financing of the bloated sector and its jobs, which he believed were funded by Veikkaus. According to Pihanurmi, the article did not mention that the sector had grown over decades by misleading the poor and those with gambling problems. https://t.co/Inulcjd4lX #politiikka #järjestö #sote (translated)

Matias Turkkila wrote that according to the morning poll, the Finns Party had surpassed the National Coalition Party. He criticized Yle's choice to give the result and the difficult situation of the National Coalition Party for analysis to Tulikukka de Fresnes, who had worked for a leftist party newspaper. According to Turkkila, the analysis focused on criticism of the government and racism. Turkkila referred to a previous EVA study, according to which Yle was, in his opinion, more left-leaning than the main supporter of the Left Alliance, Kansan Uutiset. He previously thought that journalists who had worked at Kansan Uutiset would move Yle to the left, but now believed they were shifting it to the center. #politiikka #media #Suomi (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that Vladimir Putin turned 74 today and reminded that journalist Anna Politkovskaya was shot in the elevator of her apartment building in Moscow on Putin's birthday, October 7, 2006. According to Vanhanen, Politkovskaya had documented the atrocities of Russian troops in Chechnya, torture, and abuses of power, and was one of the sharpest critics of Putin's Russia. Vanhanen assessed that Politkovskaya's murder on Putin's birthday could have been a message or a grotesque gift from the mafia state he described to the pinnacle of power. He wrote that the murder reminded of the system that Putin built: power became concentrated, violence became a tool of politics, and those defined as enemies of power could pay for their resistance with their lives. Vanhanen urged to remember also those who tried to tell the world what kind of Russia Putin was building, according to him. #Putin #Politkovskaja #Venäjä (translated)

In the discussion about music education held at Yle, every guest mentioned Islamophobia 7-8 times in their turn, according to Rivie. He noted that it was unclear what the word brought to the discussion of the topic, as it bypassed the journalist's question. He also wondered why the word was repeated so often in the discussion and compared the repetition to a gold nugget-like mantra. #ylenaamu https://t.co/NHIQRcRN5u #musiikki #musikkikasvatus #islamofobia (translated)

Tuukka Kuru wrote that he had been amused by the panic surrounding the stickers. According to him, street robbery, taxi rape, or gang assault did not shock the liberal journalist as much as seeing an unwanted political message. https://t.co/OAkhU71gVF #poliikka #media #yhteiskunta (translated)

Tuukka Kuru stated that he had discussed with two journalists during the day about stickers, return migration, Finland's population development, and Finnish youth. According to him, these topics were becoming mainstream, and he thanked the distributors of the stickers. #Suomi #Väestökehitys #Nuoriso (translated)

Sammallahti wrote that Joona Räsänen remarked that cuts do not necessarily kill economic growth. According to Sammallahti, Tytti Tuppurainen noticed that the journalist and photographer from Kuukausiliite were still listening at the door of the hall and directed them outside with her gaze. Sammallahti claimed this had undermined the SDP's most central economic criticism and wrote that the party is aware of this. He asked Antti Lindtman whether the SDP intends to continue scaring and misleading Finns. https://t.co/djE2iX7VHf #politiikka #talous #SDP (translated)

Yaron Nadbornik wrote that from the articles in Helsingin Sanomat covering the foreign elections, there might have been an impression that the victory of the right-wing candidate was portrayed as a coincidence, a surge of extremist groups, or the result of foolish decisions. In contrast, the success of the left-wing candidate appeared to him as a return of the world to the right track and a relief for journalists after years of injustices or foolishness. He attached to his writing an article about the second round of the Brazilian presidential elections, where the headline indicated that the right-wing Bolsonaro was in the lead. https://t.co/qKugJcZYuv #politiikka #vaalit #medianäkyvyys (translated)

Lucia described the typical reader of Helsingin Sanomat as a 25–40-year-old, highly educated urban woman who lived in neighborhoods like Kallio, Käpylä, Kumpula, Pakila, Kalasatama, Töölö, or Lauttasaari. She noted that this woman would usually vote for the Greens, the Left Alliance, or the SDP and would frequent brunches, bars, and the Flow festival. According to Lucia, the woman she described might be in a relationship, live in a community garden cabin, and be the mother of one or two children. She listed names like Alvar, Oliver, Ariel, Kuura, and Kaura for the children. Lucia mentioned that the woman preferred public transportation but accepted her partner's expensive car, even if she suffered from climate anxiety and flying shame. The woman might also have a small dog. The author claimed that such a reader did not know any voters of the Finns Party and might consider her rural uncle, who had voted for the party at times, to be peculiar. She speculated that the woman worked in a field where she could aim to make the world a better place. Lucia called this a reader profile and target group for Helsingin Sanomat, whose interests and views, according to her, the paper's journalists anticipated. She wrote that HS did not aim for objective or neutral reporting, nor was it an agenda-driven media outlet. According to her, the paper's target group did not encompass all people regardless of their background, lifestyle, or viewpoints. She compared HS to a mirror held up by journalists so that the reader could be satisfied with what they saw, and concluded that the reader of the described profile was not the same as the writer of the piece. #Helsinki #ilmastoahdistus #lukijaprofiili (translated)

In a Tampere taxi, a Finnish driver was stabbed by Mohammed sitting next to him, Helsingin Sanomat headlines: "Passenger in a Tampere taxi got into a fight with the driver?" YLE's journalists have been to journalism school! #Suomi #uutiset #väkivalta (translated)

For a change, another organizational rant article in HS. Both the Mannerheim League for Child Welfare mentioned by the author and the Niilo Mäki Foundation, which finances the Niilo Mäki Institute, are both organizations bloated with gambling loss funds. In both, there is plenty to cut besides guiding volunteer activities. For instance, from research, project and material manufacturing, lobbying, and administration. Mervi Viteli-Hietanen, who is concerned about the Reading Granny and Grandpa activities, has otherwise worked as a journalist and has written at least for the Pirkanmaa Left's Vasen kaista online magazine. https://t.co/SGzlbE6OyK #järjestöt #näkökulma #yhteiskunta (translated)

The journalist who was convicted of treason by Hesarin spread Alpo Rusi's investigation material to the newspaper, tarnishing the entire Rusi's career. He was never charged with anything, but his name was thus sullied. It's a bit the same with you now. #journalismi #uutiset #suomi (translated)

A journalist from HS found out the exact reason for the preliminary investigation of my incitement against a population group. Only the police and the prosecutor knew about the matter, as the case is not public. This will be an exciting story – whatever happens! By the way, where did the HS journalist get the information; who knows? #journalismi #uutiset #suomi (translated)

Incomprehensible that @TyttiTup calls the government far-right without the journalist or even @anttihakkanen intervening in any way. Tell me, Tytti, what “far-right” things the government has done – besides meeting with the Jews?😂 https://t.co/ZY68924Oj6 #politiikka #suomi #äärioikeisto (translated)

Toimittaja: ”Onko tässä kyse vain äärioikeistolaisuudesta vai onko muutakin?” Akka: ”Se on vaikea kysymys, kun nyt on tämä digiaika ja oli koronaa ja…” 🤪🤡 Vastaa kysymykseen!!!!! https://t.co/hQ4AAEpgxG #politiikka #digiaika #korona

Katsoin A-studion ääriajatteluosion. Kiinnitin huomiota KRP:n haastatteluun, joka spiikattiin toimittajan toimesta näin: ”poliisi tiedotti toissaviikolla, että nuorten äärioikeistolainen väkivalta on ilmiö, josta pitäisi olla huolissaan, ja näin tilannetta kommentoi rikosylitarkastaja, tiedusteluyksikön päällikkö Jaakko Christensen KRP:stä” Ensinnäkin, poliisi ei valtakunnallisesti tiedottanut, vaan @SiSuPoliisi Ennalta estävä toiminto (hyvin pieni yksittäinen pulju) tiedotti. Mikään muu poliisilaitos tai Poliisihallitus ei yhtynyt viestiin. @paularisikko yritti kyllä tehdä aiheella politiikkaa siinä varsinaisesti onnistumatta. @krp_poliisi Christensenin haastattelussa taas puhutaan asioista tuon klipin perusteella paljon laajemmin, siinä ei mm. nimetä äärioikeistoa erikseen ja puhutaan mm. ääriryhmistä, järjestäytyneestä rikollisuudesta ja kyberrikosryhmistä rekrytoivina joukkoina. Jos tulkintani on väärä, KRP voi korjata. Voisi muutenkin tehdä lausunnon asiasta, että mistä on kyse. Omaan silmään ja korvaan tuon klipin perusteella vaikuttaa, että KRP ei nimenomaisesti puhu tässä äärioikeistolaisesta radikalisoitumisesta, vaan laajemmasta ilmiöstä. Jos/kun näin on, melkoinen rimanalitus Yleltä kehystää toimittajan toimesta KRP:n lausunto koskemaan vain äärioikeistolaista ajattelua. Minusta tuntuu, että Yleisradio on aloittanut eduskuntavaalikampanjansa. #ääriajattelu #poliisi #radikalisoituminen

Toimittajalla on oikeuksia, joita tavallisella kansalaisella ja vapaalla podcastilla ei ole. Kunnianloukkauksessa toimittajaa ei tuomita yhtä helposti kuin yksityishenkilöä, jos puhe koskee yleistä etua. Sanomalehti maksaa toimittajan juristit. Podcastin tekijä maksaa itse. Valtamedialla on Julkisen sanan neuvosto, joka käsittelee valitukset median sisällä. Vapaalla podcastilla tätä väylää ei ole. Toimittaja pääsee lehdistökortilla eduskunnan ja viranomaisten tiedotustilaisuuksiin. Sinä et. Julkaistun median sisältöä koskeva syyte kulkee usein valtakunnansyyttäjän kautta. Tavallisen ihmisen puhe menee suoraan tavalliseen rikosprosessiin. Toimittajan kotietsintä arvioidaan lehdistönvapautena. Sinun kotisi etsitään tavallisena kotietsintänä. Tämä ei ole vahinko. Arkadianmäen sirkus rakensi järjestelmän, joka pitää vallan ja tiedon samassa sisäpiirissä — ja kutsuu sitä demokratiaksi. Sirkuspellet eivät halua aidossa kilpailussa syntyvää totuutta. He haluavat, että ainoa ääni, joka nauttii oikeudellisesta suojasta, on se, joka ei koskaan heiluta venettä. #journalismi #media #vapaus
