Magazinet became known to a wider audience in January 2006, when it was the first newspaper in Norway to reprint the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons which, according to the editor, was done in the name of freedom of speech. The printing of these drawings resulted in attacks on Norwegian installations in some parts of the Muslim world. [3]
