Kansan Uutiset
''Kansan Uutiset'' (Finnish: "People's News") is a Finnish language weekly newspaper published in Helsinki, Finland. It is the party organ of the Left Alliance. History and profile ''Kansan Uutiset'' was founded in 1957 as the joint organ of Communist Party of Finland (SKP) and Finnish People's Democratic League (SKDL), both of which, until then, had had their own papers, '' Työkansan Sanomat'' (SKP) and ''Vapaa Sana'' (SKDL). During the 1970s and in the first half of the 1980s ''Kansan Uutiset'' represented the moderates in these groups whereas '' Tiedonantaja'' was the organ of the doctrinaire faction. ''Kansan Uutiset'' served the parties until their dissolution in 1990. The paper had close ties to the new Left Alliance, which was founded in 1990, but it did not declare itself the organ until 2000. In the 1990s ''Kansan Uutiset'' called itself an "independent left paper".Yrjö Rautio. (2007). Sitoutumattomaksi ja jälleen puoluelehdeksi. in Veli-Pekka Leppänen (ed.): Etusiv ...
