Recent structural transformations in the newspaper industry and editorial choices cut the number of articles on religion<br>considerably in 2018 compared to earlier years. However, the relative<br>visibility of religion in the share of the total editorial output is fairly<br>stable, at about 1.5 per cent of the content. Rather, the changes have<br>been with the diversity and criticism of religion. The representation<br>of Islam has strongly increased, while the newspapers have played<br>down the coverage of the Lutheran majority church. The conflictual<br>diversity and contested cultural heritage in the newspaper material are<br>partly shaped by the media dynamics in the mediatization of religion.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Temenos - Nordic Journal for the Study of Religion}, author={Lundby, Knut}, year={2019}, month={Dec.}, pages={249–70} }
