Norwegian American
To the "Posten" were incorporated the "Minneapolis Tidende" in 1935, and the "Skandinaven" in 1941. By 1948 the "Posten" claimed to have a larger circulation than all other Norwegian-American newspapers combined. The "Decorah-Posten" ceased publication in 1972 when it was purchased by "Western Viking". Now known as "The Norwegian American", this bilingual publication is the continuation of several former Norwegian language newspapers, including "Decorah-Posten", "Ved Arnen", "Minneapolis-Tidende", "Minnesota Posten", "Washington Posten", "Norrøna" and "Skandiaben".
