Kristeligt Dagblad is a Danish newspaper in Copenhagen. The paper was founded in 1896 and is still circulation in the 2000s. It was founded with a Christian orientation.
History and profile
Kristeligt Dagblad was established in 1896.[1][2] It was an initiative of the Lutheran Inner Mission created to oppose radicalism and atheism.[3] The paper is owned by Kristeligt Dagblad A/S and is based in Copenhagen.[1][2][4] It is published six times per week from Monday to Saturday.[2][5] Initially, Kristeligt Dagblad was an Evangelical newspaper.[6] The paper was apolitical, publishing articles on religious and moral topics as well as on cultural topics.[6] In 1909, it published anti-evolutionary articles, strongly opposing the views of Charles Darwin.[6] From 1914, the paper took a wider approach and in 1935 broke away from the Inner Mission, presenting general news but without any political association. It gained popularity under the leadership of Gunnar Helweg-Larsen, but lost ground in the 1950s. From 1950, it adopted a new approach, adopting a more lively style with more emphasis on foreign news. The paper does not have any sports section and covers sports-related news occasionally.[7] The editor of Kristeligt Dagblad is Erik Bjerager.[8]
Circulation
In 1908, Kristeligt Dagblad sold 8,000 copies.[6] During the last six months of 1957, the paper had a circulation of 16,582 copies on weekdays.[9] During the second half of 1997, the circulation of Kristeligt Dagblad was 16,000 copies on weekdays.[10] The paper had a circulation of 25,000 copies in 2004[1] and 25,400 copies in 2005.[5] The circulation of the paper was 25,143 copies in 2008 and 25,718 copies in 2009.[11] It grew to 26,267 copies in 2010 and to 26,301 in 2011.[11] The paper had a circulation of 26,000 copies a day in 2013.[3]
