History and profile

[edit]

The paper was first published on 2 July 1869[1][2] under the name Vestjylland eller Herning Folkeblad.[3] Mediehuset Herning Folkeblad is the owner of Herning Folkeblad.[4] The company also owns Midtjyllands Avis, Ikast Avis[4] and Skive Folkeblad which was acquired by the company in September 2020.[5] Herning Folkeblad was formerly owned by a family company.[6]

The headquarters of Herning Folkeblad is in Herning.[6][7] The paper cooperates with the Herning Public Library with which it shares the same building.[7]

Although Herning Folkeblad has no political affiliation, it has a right-wing tradition,[8] and in the 1970s it had a liberal political stance.[1][6]

During the first half of 1966 Herning Folkeblad sold 15,700 copies.[9]
