NATO psychological warfare
For almost seven years, Henrik Jørgen Huitfeldt, the major Schibsted shareholder, was Norway's representative in NATO's supreme body for psychological warfare, PCC or "Psyops Coordination Committee". Huitfeldt was a member of the Advisory Assembly for Psychological Operations in SHAPE from 1989 to 1996. This happened while he was still a not insignificant shareholder in the media group Schibsted. When his father died in 1979, he inherited 5.6 percent of the group. He and his two siblings owned the majority of the shares. Their father was Henrik Schibsted Huitfeldt , who from the end of the German occupation in May 1945 and for a generation to come was one of the newspaper's editors-in-chief.[2]
The shares were sold by Henrik Jørgen Huitfeldt in 1992. This happened in the wake of sharp conflicts within Schibsted towards the end of the 1980s. This battle was won by Tinius Nagell-Erichsen. In 1989, Schibsted came to an end as a conglomerate of family-owned, individual companies.[2]
Almost no one knew that Norway had a representative in NATO's Psyops body, nor that there was a major shareholder in Schibsted sitting there, appointed by the [high command of the Armed Forces.[2]
