Established in 1896, this paper is Christian in orientation, "Faith, Ethics and Existence" appears on its title page. It was founded in reaction to the coverage of a funeral ceremony sermon held for four drowned fishermen. The pastor felt his sermon had been misinterpreted and that he had been misquoted. The Inner Mission interpreted this as a need for a Christian newspaper. Kristeligt Dagblad is widely perceived as a quality paper which dedicates plenty of space to cultural issues as well as analyses and background reports. The paper has managed to keep its circulation steady at 26,000 copies for years. It is owned by around 3,000 shareholders, a large portion of them are readers. Going against current trends, the paper was actually able to win over more readers for the print version as well.
