History and profile
Dagbladet Information was established and published by the Danish resistance movement in 1943 during World War II.[1][2] The paper was edited by Børge Outze[3] and was illegal during the war as it was not regulated by the German occupying power.[2][3] Following the liberation on 5 May 1945 Dagbladet Information was a reality and was officially founded in August 1945.[2] Outze continued to work as the paper's editor in chief to his death in 1980. It has its headquarters in Copenhagen.[4]
Dagbladet Information is the youngest major newspaper in Denmark[2] and remains independent of the larger publishing houses. The paper is owned by A/S Information[2] and is published by A/S Dagbladet Information from Monday to Saturday.[3] It is based in Copenhagen.[2][3]
In the 1970s Dagbladet Information was one of the alternative media together with Politisk Revy in Denmark and covered all dimensions of new social movements.[1]
The newspaper, which despite being politically independent, is regarded as left liberal[3] and leftist[5] by some, but known as being equally critical in its point of view of all political organizations. It prints letters from prominent conservative figures and it tries to see several sides of a case. The tone is serious and the number of charts and pictures is limited, comparable to the French newspaper Le Monde. Information has a syndication agreement with the British newspaper The Guardian, and often collaborates with The Independent for articles and reports. The paper covers in-depth analytical articles.[2]
Dagbladet Information was published in broadsheet format until 30 November 2004 when it switched to a compact format.[2]
On 8 September 2006, the newspaper printed six of the less offensive entries from the Iranian Holocaust cartoon exhibition, which was a response to the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy. The editor chose the cartoons after consulting the main rabbi in Copenhagen.[6]
Danish journalist Mette Davidsen-Nielsen served as the paper's CEO from 2010 to 2016.
Circulation
During the last six months of 1957 Dagbladet Information had a circulation of 24,214 copies on weekdays.[7] The circulation of the paper was 22,000 copies on weekdays during the second half of 1997.[8] Its circulation was also 22,000 copies in the first quarter of 2000.[9] The paper had a circulation of 20,000 copies in 2004[2] and 20,600 copies in 2005.[4] In 2009 it had a daily circulation of 22,000 copies,[3] making it the smallest national daily newspaper in Denmark.
