MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN BERGEN

The press landscape in western Norway is structured around a highly competitive two-paper market supplemented by district weeklies and niche publications. Bergens Tidende, founded in 1868 and currently owned by Schibsted, serves as the dominant regional daily. It competes locally with Bergensavisen, a smaller tabloid historically affiliated with the labor movement. The city also sustains specialized national titles, including the Christian daily Dagen, and community-focused suburban papers like Fanaposten. Paperboy lists 10 newspapers in Bergen.
