Document.no is a Norwegian far-right[5] anti-immigration online newspaper.[6] Academics have identified Document.no as an anti-Muslim[12] website permeated by the Eurabia conspiracy theory.[3][7] The website received global media attention in connection with the 2011 Norway attacks due to its association with perpetrator Anders Behring Breivik, a former comment section poster on the website.[3][13][14]

The articles published in Document.no are often critical towards Islam[15][16] and immigration,[17][18] and supportive of Israel[19] and the United States;[20][21] although increasingly more critical of Barack Obama and supportive of Donald Trump and conspiracy theories such as election fraud in the 2020 election.[22] Faktisk.no found Document.no to be part of a far-right echo chamber that is one of Norway's most popular online newspapers in social media,[23] and a report on extremism on the Internet published in 2013 by the Ministry of Justice and Public Security described Document.no as an "extremist website."[24] Document.no has been met with mixed reception in media commentary.[29]

Document originally began as a small publishing company.[17][30] The website was launched by its owner Hans Rustad in 2003, and is owned by the limited company with the same name.[31][32][33] In 2018 Rustad was admitted to the Association of Norwegian Editors.[34] Document.no was granted financial press support from the Norwegian state in 2023.[35]

For the latter three dimensions included in our study, we find significant correlations in our quantitative analysis indicating that those who comment anonymously and those who are skeptical of strict editorial policies tend to experience repercussions more often, as do those who comment on the far-right anti-Islamic news site Document.no - indicating that issue controversy does increase the likelihood of experiencing repercussions.

I opened the chapter by discussing the terrorist attack of Anders Behring Breivik in Norway. The attack revealed a hidden sub-culture in Norway, simmering underneath on the Internet; a network of racist and Islamophobic groups operating around the country. One of the main forums for these politics was the online platform document.no, where Norwegian racists exchanged their views.

In Norway, strongly anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant voices increasingly began to make themselves heard, and they would soon enter the mainstream media. The most influential website devoted to anti-Muslim discourse, document.no, later infamous for being the terrorist Anders Behring Breivik's favorite website, was founded in January 2003.

The day after the attacks, Hans Rustad—editor of the Norwegian anti-Muslim forum document.no where Breivik had been a frequent participant—revealed that "large parts" of 2083 were plagiarized from the Unabomber Manifesto, published in 1995 by anti-modernist and technology critic Ted Kaczynski, who carried out a series of 16 bomb attacks against universities and airline companies. [...] Is the claim correct? Well, not really. Three of 1516 pages are taken from the Unabomber Manifesto, from a section in which Kaczynski decries the left (substituted for multiculturalists by Breivik). The remaining 1513 pages come from elsewhere.

Øyvind Strømmen argues in his book, Det Mørke Nettet, that it is essential to understand the dangerous undercurrents of counter-jihad movements that flourish on the Internet. It was these chat forums and specialised sites, like 'Gates of Vienna' and Document.no, which steadily nourished Breivik with a constant stream of anti-immigrant, Islamophobic and xenophobic arguments and which provided a ready-tailored and adapted counter-jihad ideological framework.
