Dagbladet (English: The Daily Magazine) is one of Norway's largest newspapers and is published in the tabloid format.

[8] Since 1977, it has officially been politically neutral, though it has kept its position as a liberal newspaper, also incorporating some culturally radical stands in issues like the language struggle, church policies, feminism, intimate relationship, criminal care, etc.

[9] During the German occupation of Norway the editor of Dagbladet, Einar Skavlan, was arrested in April 1942 due to the paper's liberal stance and loyalty to the King.

Over the past few years, Dagbladet has had success with the Saturday supplement Magasinet, which reaches 25.3% of the adult population of Norway.

[12] Due to the declining of daily circulation, the newspaper has reduced the number of workers the last couple of years by a few hundred.

DB Medialab AS also owned 50% of the Norwegian web portal and ISP start.no and ran the online community Blink from 2002 to 2011.

[13] In June 2013, Dagbladet with online products was sold from Berner Gruppen to Aller Media for reportedly about 300 million Norwegian kroner.

[citation needed] In 1988, Dagbladet was criticised for the aggressive use of photographs of grieving next-of-kin in the aftermath of the Flight 710 air-disaster.

[24] The newspaper encountered criticism over a cartoon published in November 2011 that equated the Holocaust with the situation in the Gaza Strip.

[25] Editor of the culture-and-opinion sections in Dagbladet Geir Ramnefjell dismissed the criticism of the 2013 drawing, stating that it was an "innocent ridicule of religious practice and nothing more than that".
