Editing Silkeborg (section)

==Media==
Silkeborg is served by two media outlets; a newspaper and a radio station. The oldest of the two is the daily newspaper ''[[Midtjyllands Avis]]'' founded in 1857<ref name=jphus>{{cite web|title=Other Activities|url=http://www.jppol.dk/en/artikler/other-activities.aspx|work=JP/Politikens Hus|access-date=15 February 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150215230834/http://www.jppol.dk/en/artikler/other-activities.aspx|archive-date=15 February 2015|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}}</ref> as ''Silkeborg Avis''. It is the sixth oldest newspaper in Denmark and was founded when the town of Silkeborg had only existed for 11 years. For many years the paper had its own paper press, but now it is printed at [[Jyllands-Posten]]'s facilities.

''Midtjyllands Avis'' is now owned by the Silkeborg Avis group. This group is also the joint owner of the radio station Radio 1 (formerly known as Radio Silkeborg), a commercial radio station broadcasting online and on FM across central Jutland. The radio station tends to air a mix of pop music and local news. The sister station, Silkeborg Guld, tailors its programming for audiences interested in older Danish and English music, only interrupted by adverts. The newspaper and the radio station are both headquartered at Papirfabrikken.

On the 16th of August 2013 it was announced that Radio Silkeborg was to be handed over to the Radio ABC Group. As a consequence, five employees were made redundant, but programmes would continue to be broadcast on the same FM frequency.<ref>[http://www.radioassistant.com/dk/2013/08/breaking-radio-1-og-silkeborg-guld-lukker/ Radio Silkeborg closes], Retrieved 17 November 2013.</ref>
