As the capital of Norway, Oslo holds the headquarters of most national newspapers in Norway. On the other hand, there have been discussions on the lack of local newspapers covering the communities and day-to-day affairs of the boroughs of Oslo. At various times, there have been efforts to prop up local newspapers. The 1920s saw a wave of establishments which restricted themselves to covering specific outer boroughs of the former Aker municipality. The early 21st century saw several new borough-specific newspapers emerge, alongside some publications seeking to cover the politics of the city as a whole.

Kvinneaktivistene is a Norwegian gender-critical/trans-exclusionary radical feminist (TERF) group that opposes transgender rights, and that has been described as transphobic. Members have opined that they consider trans women to be "men" and "pervos" and have complained that they have faced backlash for expressing such views. The group is closely associated with the Norwegian chapter of Women's Declaration International (WDI). It has had a presentation cancelled by an Oslo events venue, Kulturhuset, due to its anti-trans views; Kulturhuset cited the group's bylaws that explicitly exclude transgender women and said the group is transphobic. It is considered part of the broader anti-gender movement in Norway. In 2024 Benedicte Alnæs, who has been both chair of WDI Norway and a spokesperson for Kvinneaktivistene, reported the leader of the Women's Group Ottar in Oslo to the police for hate speech after the Ottar representative had called her a "Zionist pig" due to her views on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
The Women's Group Ottar is a Norwegian radical feminist women's organization founded in 1991. It has its historical roots in the Norwegian Marxist-Leninist movement of the 1970s and has been described as the most radical women's organization and "a final offshoot of 70s feminism." Ottar began as an offshoot of the Women's Front, and later, it splintered again, resulting in the creation of two new groups with explicitly trans-exclusionary profiles, Women's Declaration International (WDI) and Kvinneaktivistene. The Women's Front described WDI as "transphobes." While mainly focused on combating pornography and prostitution from a radical feminist perspective, Ottar has also faced criticism from the Red Party, the Red Youth, LGBT+ rights groups and others for promoting or tolerating anti-trans and anti-Jewish views within its ranks, and some prominent members such as Kari Jaquesson have expressed support for trans-exclusionary radical feminism (TERF) and declared themselves to be TERFs. Ottar members have also engaged in doxxing and harassment of trans women by publishing pre-transition photos of them. Ottar has promoted several anti-gender beliefs, including opposition to the word "cisgender" and opposition to trans people's access to public restrooms in accordance with their gender identity. Ottar has accused the Norwegian Organisation for Sexual and Gender Diversity of working for prostitution as "a nice way to recruit young men into the gay community and has claimed that the Norwegian Humanist Association and Amnesty International are linked to an alleged "prostitution industry." Ottar's claims have been criticized by LGBT+ rights advocates as conspiracy theories and by the Norwegian Humanist Association as unworthy of serious attention. For several years, Ottar has participated in the anti-trans FiLiA conference, which opposes what it refers to as "gender ideology" and which is closely linked to WDI and regarded as one of the world's most active gender-critical groups. In 2024 Ottar faced strong criticism when the chair of its largest chapter referred to a Jewish woman as a "Zionist pig."
