Mikael Jalving
Edit ProfileCareer
Jalving worked as a commentator for Berlingske Tidende and wrote as the newspaper"s most widely read blogger, until 2009 when he was hired by Jyllands-Posten. He caught attention in Sweden in 2011 for his book Absolut Sverige, which according to Dagens Nyheter describes a land of "self-righteous Swedes, treacherously lulled into a social democratic dystopia of control and political correctness". The book was partly a response to a book by Swedish journalist Lena Sundström that criticised Danish attitudes towards immigration.
During the month of July 2014, Jalving hosted a limited daily radio show called Danmarks Röst ("Voice of Denmark", inspired by Cold War-era Voice of America), which aimed to transmit debate to Swedish listeners about subjects perceived to be taboo in Swedish public debate.
Politics
Jalving has described himself as politically being national-liberal, social conservative, and more right-wing than all parties represented in the Folketing.
