25.01.2026The Day of the Alex Pretti Killing Videos
The editorial morning was dominated by the aftermath of the federal ICE shooting in Minneapolis. Editors prioritized the identification of the victim as 37-year-old Alex Pretti and began a detailed forensic analysis of video footage to determine if he held a weapon or a phone. This local American unrest transitioned into a broader geopolitical critique by midday, as Finnish outlets analyzed the strategic 'bluff' of the Trump administration’s peace negotiations in Abu Dhabi while Russia intensified strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure.
By early afternoon, the domestic focus shifted to the 'cold shower' of weakened transatlantic relations, highlighted by Prime Minister Orpo’s admission of a 'dent' in Finnish-U.S. ties. Simultaneously, Helsingin Sanomat led a major domestic investigation into systemic police failures regarding nine domestic violence murders. The evening cycle converged on the 'monster' winter storm paralyzing the U.S. East Coast, framing a superpower in simultaneous environmental and social crisis.
