Satakunnan Kansa (abbreviated SK, literally translated the "People of Satakunta") is a Finnish language regional newspaper published in Pori, Finland. In 2024, it will merge into Satakunta Kansa Länsi-Suomi, and the long new name has raised eyebrows for being an awkward tongue twister.

History and profile

The newspaper was established under the name of Satakunta in 1873. In Finland it is the second oldest newspaper which is still in distribution. It was renamed as Satakunnan Kansa in 1917 when the papers Satakunta and Satakunnan Sanomat (1907–1917) were merged.

Satakunnan Kansa is part of Alma Media.
