Sørlandet (newspaper)
''Sørlandet'' (lit. " Southern Norway") was a Norwegian newspaper, published in Kristiansand in Vest-Agder county. ''Sørlandets Social-Democrat'' was started on 5 January 1907, after a trisal issue on 21 December 1906, as a Labour Party newspaper. It was weekly from the start, but daily from 1909. The name was changed to ''Sørlandet'' from 30 April 1923. The change followed a letter in 1922 from the Comintern Executive which stated that no newspaper should have "Social Democrat" or "Democrat" in its title. The breakthrough came in 1927, when, after years of turbulence in the labour movement, the Labour Party absorbed the Social Democratic Labour Party. Four years later a former Communist became the newspaper's editor. Notable editors were Ole Øisang (1920–1925), Olav Scheflo (1931–1939) and Odd Lien (1956-1977). Jakob Friis also contributed.
