Suny,

        but,just for you,i will expand the discussio.


  Still talking about the same newspaper.



The paper is historically known for taking a right-wing line.


[edit]

1920s - 1930s

In the 1920s and 30s the paper was infamous for its sympathy for fascism and understanding of the German Nazi dictatorship. When Benito Mussolini in 1922 became the leader of a fascist coalition government in Italy, the paper wrote: "The very strong man, that Mussolini absolutely is, is exactly what the misruled Italian people needs" [3]. In 1933 the paper even claimed for the introduction of dictatorship to Denmark: "Now the electors know that the democracy has been transformed to a pure rule of parties, where objective matters are pushed aside for the party political. And that is why we must assume that a majority of the voters sincerely wishes the dictatorship as the only solution to healthy conditions in the administration of the state" [4].


Already in 1938 though, the newspaper showed its antipathy towards Nazi-Germany and Mussolini with an editorial written by the famous Danish priest Kaj Munk, critizising persecutions against jews[5]. Kaj Munk was later killed by the Nazis under the German occupation
