Sogningen

Sogningen was a Norwegian newspaper, published in Vikøyri, then part of Sogn og Fjordane county.

Sogningen was established in 1897, and was published in Vikøyri by Rasmus Thorsen as the Conservative Party organ in Sogn.

[1] It faced competition from another local newspaper, Sognefjord, from 1912 to 1919, which was started by former (1911 to 1912) Sogningen editor-in-chief Dankert Skagen.

[2][3] When Sogningen was moved to Balestrand in 1925, new editor became Richard Christoffer Schelderup Knoff.

He owned the newspaper to 1948, but long before that he had installed his son Richard Knoff, Jr. as editor.
