Ekstra Bladet is a Danish tabloid newspaper, published by JP/Politikens Hus in Copenhagen.[1][2] It was founded in 1904 as an evening edition to Politiken. In 1905 the newspaper was established in its own right and has since focused on investigative journalism, news, sports and entertainment. It has been described as a sensationalistic newspaper.[3][4] Since April 2022, Knud Brix has been editor-in-chief.
