In the course of the nineteenth century the advent of printed
pamphlets, with their news and advertisements, gave every town
along Norway's long coast - populated by farmers, fishermen,
clergy, businessmen and shopkeepers - a common language and a
public arena for news and ideas. In Norway alone, the number of
titles grew from a handful to a hundred in the course of the
century. From 1900 to 1940 the number of papers swelled to two
hundred and seventy - the number that remains today. The press
system created a substantial structure, which would prove vital for
many of the later media outlets that developed over the twentieth
century with the breakthrough of new technologies - cinema
industry, radio broadcasting, television and the internet.
Newspapers generated the money and power for the development of
these media, thus shaping such media and determining, or at least
influencing, their perception and reception in Norwegian society.
The press in Norway is therefore at the core of the modern media
system and its rich history.
