Purpose

Selskabets formål er at udgive medier med lokalt indhold, herunder dagbladet Herning Folkeblad. Udgivelsen skal være uafhængigt af såvel politiske som enkelte personer og interesseorganisationer. Udgivelserne skal redigeres ud fra et liberalt grundsyn. Det er endvidere selskabets formål at drive anden virksomhed, så længe det ikke er i strid med hovedformålet.

The purpose is quoted from the register in Danish.
