Finland’s national news agency STT will shut down its news and photography operations at the end of March 2027, ending almost 140 years of journalism and eliminating 89 jobs following years of financial losses. The company announced the decision on Thursday, after completing restructuring negotiations that began earlier this month. The closure will affect all 68 journalists employed by the agency, including reporters, editors and photojournalists.
