Dagens Nyheter (DN) (Swedish: lit. "news of the day") is a daily newspaper in Sweden. It has the largest circulation of Swedish morning newspapers, followed by Göteborgs-Posten and Svenska Dagbladet, and is the only morning newspaper that is distributed to subscribers across the whole country. In 2006 DN had a circulation of 345 000, reaching 881 000 people every day.[2] Opinion leaders often choose DN as the venue for publishing major debate articles. The stated position of the editorial page is "independently liberal".
It is published in Stockholm and aspires to full national and international coverage.
DN was founded by Rudolf Wall. The first issue was published on December 23, 1864. The format was completely changed from the classic broadsheet to tabloid on October 5, 2004.
Dagens Nyheter operated from the so-called DN-skrapan (the DN-skyscraper) in Sweden. This was completed in 1964 and was designed by architect Paul Hedqvist. It is 84 metres (276 ft.) tall and has 27 floors, none of which are underground.
In 1996 the entire enterprise moved to its current location on Gjörwellsgatan, which is adjacent to the old ‘DN-skrapan’.[1] The newspaper Expressen is also located in this building.
