History and profile

Dags-Telegrafen was established by J. Christian Ferslew in Copenhagen in 1864.[1][2] The paper had a conservative stance and was the first of such newspapers in Denmark.[1] In fact, it was affiliated with the Conservative Party.[3]

In first half of the 1870s Dags-Telegrafen became one of the best selling newspapers in the country.[1][2] An evening edition of the paper, Nationaltidende, was launched in 1876.[1] Sophus Peter Tromholt published his auroral observations in Dags-Telegrafen[4] which folded in 1891.[3]
