History
changeThe newspaper was made by Odd Harald Hauge, Stig Eide Sivertsen, and Knut Ivar Skeid.[7] It was first called "Nettavisen" in Norwegian. In 1999, it was bought by Spray Sweden. Spray Sweden later became part of Lycos Europe.[5] The founders of Nettavisen also helped launch a site called Netzeitung.[7]
In 2002, Nettavisen was bought by TV 2.[5] TV 2 sold the newspaper in 2008.[8][9] They did this because they didn't have enough money. Since 2009, Nettavisen has been owned by Egmont and Amedia.[5][10]
Nettavisen is part of the media company Mediehuset Nettavisen. It has been owned by them since 2008.[7] In 2014, the company had 39.7% yearly income growth.[11][12] It is the second most visited news website on mobile in Norway.[6]
Nettavisen is known for being somewhat right-of-center politically.[13] It is considered the only large national newspaper in Norway. It expanded in 2017 by launching editions in Polish, Arabic, Russian, and Somali.[14] In the same year, Amedia bought Nettavisen.[15]
