Controversies

Among the editorial positions taken by the newspaper is opposition to legalizing gay marriage and gay adoption. The paper also served as a mouthpiece for Jan-Aage Torp when he encouraged Christians to use directed prayer in order to oust gays from positions of power.[1]

This call for a prayer campaign was discussed in a number of media, including Dagbladet.[2]
