Nya Allehanda - Sweden's least objective newspaper, is a paperblog containing articles from Sweden's most popular blogs. 

The project aims to question the newspaper's status as truth-teller and illustrate how blogs, in a lot of cases, have become a better and faster source for information. By presenting blog content in the form of a traditional newspaper, I wanted to play on our preconceptions of these two medias.

Since the selection of content is based on statistics, Nya Allehanda can also be seen as a crosssection over people's internet habits. A copy of the this paper is stored at the National Library of Sweden (Kungliga Biblioteket) and will make it possible for future generations to get a glimps of which blogs we read and what we blogged about.

The word "Allehanda" translates to something like "variety" or "miscellaneous", and is an old Swedish word which derives to the tradition of newspapers.
