Ekstra Bladet (Danish pronunciation: [ˈɛɡsdʁɐˌblæˀð]) is a Danish tabloid newspaper focusing on sensationalist news and political revelations.[1][2] Since 1979 it has always had a partly or completely naked woman on page nine which is referred to as Side 9 Pigen ("The Page 9 Girl"),[3][4] a Danish equivalent of the Page 3 girl in the United Kingdom. The current editor is Poul Madsen, who on 6 September 2007 replaced Hans Engell.[5]
History and profile
The newspaper began publication 1904[6][7] in a Politiken newspaper, and a year later, it became a separate newspaper. The headquarters of the paper is in Copenhagen.[8] Victor Andreasen served as the editor-in-chief of the paper for two times, between 1963 and 1967 and between 1971 and 1976.[9]
The political leaning of the newspaper might traditionally be viewed as social-liberal (as it is an offspring of Politiken), but it would probably be more accurate to say that the newspaper considers itself in opposition to anyone in a position of power (a watchdog),[2] and the defender of the ordinary man.[1]
In December 2010 Ekstra Bladet editor-in-chief Poul Madsen threatened to complain to the European Court of Justice after its submission of an application to Apple's App Store was rejected.[10] Madsen claimed the application was deemed offensive, and in an editorial described Apple as being an "American nanny".[11]
Since 5 October 2012 Tipsbladet, an association football magazine, has been sold with the Friday edition of Ekstra Bladet.[12]
Circulation
Ekstra Bladet's readership and circulation has declined in recent years, and continues to do so.[8][13] During the last six months of 1957 the paper had a circulation of 68,178 copies on weekdays.[14] The circulation of the paper was 210,000 copies in 1991, 198,000 copies in 1992 and 185,000 copies in 1993.[15] It fell to 177,000 copies in 1994, to 168,000 in 1995 and to 166,000 copies in 1996.[15] Although its circulation grew to 169,000 copies in 1997, it again decreased and was 159,000 copies in 1998 and 148,000 copies in 1999.[15]
It was 134,000 copies in 2000 and 127,000 copies in 2001.[15] The circulation of the paper fell to 119,000 copies in 2002.[16] It was the fourth best selling Danish newspaper in 2003 with a circulation of 110,000 copies.[17] In 2004 the paper had a circulation of 110,000 copies.[18] There is another report giving its 2004 circulation as 106,000 copies.[19] In 2012 the paper had a circulation of 60,000 copies.[8]
In March 2013 the Alexa rank of ekstrabladet.dk was 1.949, making it one of the 2.000 most popular websites worldwide.[20]
