JydskeVestkysten is a Danish language regional newspaper published in Esbjerg, Denmark which is among the largest publications in the country.

History and profile

JydskeVestkysten was first published on 15 January 1991[1] as a result of the merge between Vestkysten, which was founded in 1917, and Jydske Tidende.[2] The paper is based in Esbjerg.[3][4]

The Berlingske Media, a subsidiary of first Orkla Media and then, of Mecom,[5] had 50% share in the paper.[6][7] The other owner was the Den Sydvestjyske Venstrepresse company.[8][9] Syddanske Medier acquired 100% of the paper on 15 September 2013.[6] The publisher of the paper is Jydske Vestkysten A/S.[10][11]

JydskeVestkysten is published in broadsheet format.[11] In 1993 another local daily Kolding Folkeblad merged with the paper, allowing the paper to cover both western and southern Jutland.[1]

The European Parliament described JydskeVestkysten as a liberal newspaper in 1998.[12] It is also stated by the owner of the paper, indicating that the paper has no political affiliation.[1] However, the Danish ministry of foreign affairs regards paper as holding independent conservative views.[4] In a 2006 study it was also described as a right-wing newspaper.[13]
