## About

Iltalehti competes with Ilta-Sanomat for Finland's tabloid audience with the intensity of a paper that has always known second place is not a viable long-term strategy.

The homepage races; the editorial line holds.

## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
