List of Newspapers in Greenland (GL) – Greenlandic, Danish & English News

Greenland Greenland’s media landscape is dominated by newspapers in Greenlandic (Kalaallisut) and Danish, with limited English options. The most widely read newspaper is Sermitsiaq, published in both Danish and Greenlandic, offering comprehensive coverage of politics, culture, and local events. Another key publication is AG (Atuagagdliutit/Grønlandsposten), Greenland’s oldest newspaper, available in both languages, focusing on national and regional news.

For Greenlandic-language news, KNR (Kalaallit Nunaata Radioa) provides online updates alongside its broadcast services. English-language coverage of Greenland remains scarce, though international outlets like Reuters and BBC occasionally feature major stories. Some Danish media, such as DR and Politiken, also publish Greenland-related news, sometimes with English translations.

For those seeking Greenland news, combining local Greenlandic/Danish sources with international reports ensures a well-rounded perspective. While English newspapers dedicated to Greenland are rare, online summaries and global news platforms help bridge the gap for non-native readers.
