Lofot-Tidende

Lofot-Tidende (The Lofoten Times) is a Norwegian newspaper published in Leknes in Vestvågøy Municipality.

Lofot-Tidende covers events in the municipalities of Vestvågøy, Flakstad, and Moskenes in Nordland county and has three employees.

[2] It was owned by the Nordahl family in Leknes, but it was sold to the Conservative Party some years later, and it was discontinued in 1958.

It was started because it was felt that the newspaper Lofotposten was neglecting Vestvågøy, the largest municipality in Lofoten.

Amedia decided to reverse its decision in 2015, and in September 2015 Lofot-Tidende continued as a separate paper with one issue per week.
