The article gives an overview on gender and the news media in Finland. The main source of the article is the Global Report on the Status of Women in the News Media which is based on a global study in 59 countries. The gender divisions and hierarchies of the Finnish news media organisations are analysed in the text. In addition, the gender structures of the news contents are explicated. The Finnish research material is based on the interviews of the executives of the nine central newsrooms. The material afforded data out of 1981 employees. Although women form a clear majority of the journalists and about half of the news journalists in Finland, the top positions of news rooms are still mainly held by men, women are less paid and men dominate news content. The studies show that the proportion of female news subjects has not risen since the mid-90s. It is still about one fifth.sv
