Editorial Standards

Accuracy, fairness and transparency are the foundation of everything Finland News publishes. These standards are our promise so that readers can trust what they read on Finland News.

Fact-checking and sources

• Official sources first — We prioritize primary sources such as announcements and statistics from governments, public agencies and international organizations.
• Cross-checking — News articles are published only after facts have been cross-checked across several independent sources. We never use unverified figures, institutions or quotes.
• Internal records — We keep records of the sources behind each article for our own editorial review and corrections.

Fairness

We do not speak for any political party, company or group. On disputed issues we report official positions and confirmed facts in a balanced way, and we keep facts separate from interpretation and outlook.

Use of artificial intelligence (AI)

Finland News is published in 50 languages. Our editorial team uses AI tools to organize material and to write each language edition natively. AI-assisted articles are held to the same sourcing rules and quality checks, and anything that falls short is not published.

Corrections

When an error is confirmed, we fix it promptly and note significant corrections in the article. Requests for corrections or replies are welcome through Tips & Contact.

Advertising and news are separate

Advertising and partnerships do not influence which stories we cover or what they say, and ads are clearly marked as distinct from articles.

Privacy and human rights

We do not publish information that identifies private individuals, such as their names, faces or contact details, and we avoid defamatory or discriminatory language.
