paper established offices in Denmark's 10 largest cities. The 1990s were marked by a struggle with Berlingske Tidende which was seeking to expand its circulation in Jutland. In response, Jyllands-Posten began issuing a special version of the paper in Copenhagen. In 1994, the weekly edition became the biggest daily morning-newspaper in Denmark with a circulation of 153,000. In the period of 1995-96 the daily had a circulation of 161,000 copies. An internet edition was launched in January 1996 as the second Danish online media (after Ingeniøren), and is the most visited Danish internet news site. In 2001 a number of journalists left Jyllands-Posten and launched the free distribution daily MetroXpress in cooperation with a Swedish media company. In 2003 Jyllands-Posten merged with the rival publisher of Politiken and Ekstra Bladet when the companies of the papers merged. However, the three newspapers maintain their editorial independence. Current members of the board of trustees include two notable Danish rightwing intellectuals, David Gress and history professor Bent Jensen. In 2012, Jyllands-Posten Foundation became a founding member of the European Press Prize. Ownership Since 1 January 2003, Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten has been owned and published by JP/Politikens Hus A/S. JP/Politikens Hus is owned in equal parts by Jyllands-Posten Holding A/S and A/S Politiken Holding, the holding companies of Jyllands-Posten and Politiken respectively. The sole shareholder of Jyllands-Posten Holding is the private foundation Jyllands-Postens Fond. Established in 1971, the fund's mission is to support the political and editorial independence of Jyllands-Posten. Sections and features On a daily basis, Jyllands-Posten has at least one section dedicated to business news in addition to its main news section. Other more specialised supplementary sections are published on a weekly basis. Starting on 5 January 2006, most of these supplements (not including business ones) have been printed in a tabloid format half the size of the broadsheet sections. They have a relatively colourful layout and are referred to as avismagasiner ("newspaper magazines"). * Must and Viva are not published on a weekly basis, but rather 10 times a year each, always on Fridays. Comic strips Daily comic strips in Jyllands-Posten are Ziggy and Fred Basset (known as Freddie in Danish); the Danish comic Poeten og Lillemor was previously featured, but cancelled some time after the death of its creator, Jørgen Mogensen. Website Since 1996, Jyllands-Posten has also operated a news website, Internetavisen Jyllands-Posten (www.jp.dk). The website features a section of English-language
