"Berlingske Tidende" is a Danish daily newspaper. Founded in 1749 by Ernst Henrich Berling, it is the oldest Danish newspaper still in existence. [http://www.berlingskeofficin.dk/ Berlingske Media, most recent update of English page (2004).] ]

With a circulation of about 125,000 copies on weekdays, it is also one of the "big three" broadsheet-quality newspapers in Denmark along with "Jyllands-Posten" and "Politiken". Traditionally itself a broadsheet, "Berlingske Tidende" has been also published in the tabloid/compact format since August 28, 2006. [da icon cite web|year=2006|title=Vejen til tabloid|author=Berlingske Tidende|url=http://www.berlingske.dk/indland/artikel:aid=759982:fid=100101016/]

Following a long period of ownership by the Berling family the whole Berlingske-group was acquried in 1982 by a group of investors from the Danish corporate establishment, among these Danske Bank and A.P. Møller Mærsk. This takeover saved the group from bankruptcy, a crisis situation worsened by a long strike period as well as dwindling circulation and advertising revenues.

In 2000, Det Berlingske Officin was acquired by the Norwegian industrial conglomerate Orkla Group; and the Danish organization was integrated within a mulit-national Orkla Media group. In 2006 Berlingske Tidende, along with the rest of Berlingske Officin and Orkla Media, was sold to the British Mecom Group.
