Aalesunds blad'' (1871–1895), ''
Aalesunds Handels- og Sjøfartstidende'' (1857–1904), ''

tabloid) six days a week, the paper consists of two sections; one for local news, sports and classified ads, and one for culture, weather, opinions and editorials and obituaries. On Saturdays they print a third weekend-section.
