Uusi Suomi is a Finnish online newspaper and news service founded in 2007 that focuses on current affairs, political news, societal debate, and domestic culture. It emerged after the rights to the historic Uusi Suomi title were acquired and relaunched as a digital‑first outlet, building on the legacy of its print predecessor while operating fully online. The newsroom covers a mix of politics, public policy, social issues, and cultural topics, and is known for hosting one of Finland’s largest open blogging communities (Puheenvuoro), which allows diverse voices and public debate on its platform. Its reporting is oriented toward explaining developments to readers, stimulating discussion, and providing context for national issues. Uusi Suomi is politically independent and publishes under the larger Finnish media group Alma Media, which acquired the outlet in 2016; this places it within a commercial media portfolio rather than as a standalone independent cooperative. Its operational model combines traditional newsroom reporting with reader interaction and commentary features, supported through advertising, partnerships, and the infrastructure of its parent company. Recognised as one of Finland’s prominent online news sites, Uusi Suomi has a significant weekly readership and plays an active role in Finnish media discourse, particularly in political reporting and public debate
