Einar Fredrik Åke Tinius Nagell-Erichsen was a Norwegian publisher, noted for his leadership of the Schibsted media conglomerate which includes the broadsheet newspaper Aftenposten and the tabloid Verdens gang.[1] He attended the 1982 Bilderberg conference.

Education

Nagell-Erichsen attended the London School of Economics, receiving a Master of Science in 1959. He also worked as a waiter for two years in California.

Career

Nagell-Erichsen joined Aftenposten as a junior manager, to the surprise of the owning families of the corporations. In 1968 he became publisher of Verdens Gang, which at the time was at the brink of bankruptcy. He turned the newspaper around, setting it for the course of becoming Norway's largest newspaper. He took over as publisher of Aftenposten in 1970 until 1983, and was the chairman of the board for Schibsted from 1992 to 2002.

Nagell-Erichsen was noted for his gregarious manner.

Nagell-Erichsen inherited 26.1 per cent of Schibsted from his mother. He arranged to place the ownership of Schibsted in an irrevocable trust that would make it impossible for foreign interests to buy the newspaper. The Tinius Trust was founded in 1996.[2]
