''Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten'' (; English: ''The Morning Newspaper "The Jutland Post"''), commonly shortened to ''JP'', is a Danish daily broadsheet newspaper. It is based in Viby, a suburb of Århus, and with a weekday circulation of approximately 120,000 copies,〔(Publication figures for ''Jyllands-Posten'' ), (Dansk Oplagskontrol (in danish) ), 25 April 2010.〕 it is among the largest-selling newspapers in Denmark.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Jyllands-Posten )〕 Its main competitors are the broadsheet ''Politiken'' and compact ''Berlingske Tidende''. The foundation behind the newspaper, Jyllands-Postens Fond, defines it as an independent liberal (centre-right) newspaper.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Jyllands-Posten )〕 The paper officially supported the Conservative People's Party until 1938.〔 The newspaper was the subject of a major controversy concerning cartoons that depicted the Islamic prophet Muhammad in 2005–2006 which sparked violent protests around the world, and have led to several attempted terrorist plots against the newspaper or its employees in the years since.〔Marion G. Müller and Esra Özcan. "The political iconography of Muhammad cartoons: Understanding cultural conflict and political action." ''PS: Political Science & Politics'' (2007) 40#2 pp: 287-291.〕 ==History== The newspaper was founded in 1871 and issued its first copy on 2 October of that year. Originally, the name ''Jyllandsposten'' (in one word) was used, the hyphen being adopted in 1945. The current name was introduced in 1969. It also refers to itself as "Denmark's international newspaper". ''Jyllandsposten'' quickly became one of Jutland's most modern newspapers and secured an exclusive access to government telegraph wires between 21:00 and midnight every day. This enabled ''Jyllandsposten'' to publish news one day earlier than most of its competitors. Gradually the paper expanded, enlarging its format and adding more and more pages. The first issues had only contained four pages. In 1889 it abandoned the traditional Gothic script in favour of the Latin script used today. Gothic script had been abolished by the Danish spelling reform of 1875, but was still in wide use. Politically the paper supported the ''Højre'' ("Right") party – which became the Conservative People's Party in 1915. The paper advocated business interests and strongly opposed socialism. It was also critical of business monopolies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Jyllands-Posten )〕 In international affairs, it was generally supportive of Britain and critical of Germany, which it considered the only country that "wished to attack Denmark," to quote an 1872 edition. This nationalist sentiment was a reaction to Germany's annexation of large portions of southern Jutland following the Second War of Schleswig in 1864. Editorially the newspaper supported the Danish minority in Germany and advocated for a new border located at the Danevirke. Throughout World War I ''Jyllands-Posten'' continued its verbal attacks on Germany despite the government's policy of neutrality in the conflict. In 1918, the newspaper was outlawed in Germany.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jyllands-Posten」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
