Latest news. The history of the media in Iceland from its beginnings to the present day. By Guðjón Friðriksson.
This grand and extensive work traces in detail the history of journalism and news reporting in Iceland, from the publication of the first Icelandic magazine, Islandske Maanedstidender, in 1773 to the latest upheavals and technological revolutions in modern media society. It tells of pioneers in Icelandic newspaper publishing and features many pictures and excerpts from old newspapers, which show the style and spirit of the past. It tells of party newspapers, regional newspapers, humor and entertainment newspapers, tabloids and glossy magazines, radio and television, and various prominent and influential individuals from the media community. The book contains nearly one thousand pictures, many of which are unique sources of Icelandic journalistic and media history. The book is accompanied by a very detailed bibliography, as the author has sought out sources very widely to gather material and has produced a work that is not only a history of Icelandic media, but also a reflection of Icelandic national life and history.
