NORDSTRANDS BLAD AS is a local newspaper that covers the districts of Nordstrand, Søndre Nordstrand and Østensjø in Oslo. The newspaper was founded in 1925 as an organ for local charities and has since developed into an important source for news about society, sport and culture in the area. The paper edition is published every Thursday and offers subscription schemes for readers.
In addition to news, Nordstrands Blad publishes obituaries and greetings, and has a special section aimed at young people between 15 and 20 years of age. The newspaper encourages readers to send in tips and contributions, which contributes to a varied content. Advertising services are also available, and the newspaper includes an A to Z overview of its services, giving readers easy access to information about what is on offer. Since 1998, Nordstrands Blad has been part of the Amedia group after being taken over from Orkla Media.
