Good for Snute, i'm an early days fan and i'm always glad to see him mentionned somewhere in a good way, but we are far, far away from mainstream.
lol, dagbladet isn't some obscure newspaper in Norway. Of course it's not a 'mainstream' newspaper internationally, it's in Norwegian goddamnit

I have no idea how this analogy will land, but Dagbladet is like the New York Daily News of Norway. It's not the best or the most popular, but everybody knows it and you can find it on every newsstand in Oslo. I hesitate to use the word "reputable" with any Norwegian print media, but Dagbladet is at least a major national paper.

I always cringe a little when they write nicknames and not real names in these kinds of articles.
Cool to see one of Norways biggest newspapers pick up the story, even if its only trough their cooperation with pressfire.

Amazing work by Snute! Also it blows my mind how easy it as a Swede to read and understand Norwegian.

I read and understand norwegian with no problem at all; swedish, especially southern swedish, is a complete fucking mystery to me though

Southern Swedish is fucking mystery to every none south Swede as well  And believe it or not but I can speak fluently Danish lol, I can't write it though.
EDIT: Det er vidunderligt at være dansk, når pølserne er så god! Or something close to it.

ya, the dialects of each country's main capital are really easy to understand, it is when you come to the outskirts of each country that it becomes fucking impossible to actually hear what they are talking about, and this probably rings true for the each people in their own country as well. God knows I can't understand for the life of the what the most southern and northern swedes are trying to say sometimes.

pressfire is great, they consistently produce quality articles and my impression is that their staff are basically gamers first and journalists second. pressfire is essentially the "game" segment of dagbladet, just like newspapers will often have some staff working on music and some staff employed only to review and write about movies.
gotta admit I was pretty shocked when my colleague told me that I was mentioned in dagbladet today, but hey, I'll take it. thanks jens!

Yay, Snute made the news :D
|
Surprisingly objective article from the media about esports. Then again, it's Norway instead of America, so that probably accounts for a lot of it...
|
Very, very cool. So nice to see Snute getting lots of love.

that's cool, that its not just sweden that does this now. I can't say much good about dagbladet, but then I can't say much good about any newspaper. For the record, the article mostly summarizes Snute's story in starcraft and its mostly made for those outside the esports scene.
Dagbladet is still Norway's second largest newspaper.
