History and profile

Dagbladet Information was established and published by the

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

social movements.[1]

The newspaper, which despite being politically independent, is regarded as

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

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.
