Dagens Nyheter

Dagens Nyheter is a Swedish daily morning newspaper founded on December 23, 1864 by publisher and journalist Rudolf Wall in Stockholm. It was Sweden’s first modern morning newspaper, and Wall served as editor-in-chief until 1889. Since 1909, Dagens Nyheter has been owned by the Bonnier Group, a Swedish media conglomerate controlled by the Bonnier family and operating across 12 countries. The paper covers national and international affairs, foreign news, domestic political coverage, and arts, and is widely considered Sweden’s largest morning newspaper by circulation. Its editorial stance is described as independently liberal, a position it has formally held since distancing itself from Sweden’s liberal party establishment in 1972. The paper is published both in print and digitally.
