De Waarheid
De Waarheid was the newspaper of the Communist Party of the Netherlands.
History
It originated in 1940 under the History of [the Netherlands (1939–1945)|German occupation] as a resistance paper, the day after general H.G. Winkelman had forbidden publication of the earlier Communist Volksdagblad. The party decided on May 15, 1940, to continue the Volksdagblad illegally under the name De Waarheid. The first months were spent setting up a nationwide network of 'handout points', the main articles would be written centrally, whereas the different 'handout points' added localized articles. These local versions sometimes were published under different names as 'De vonk' and 'Het noorderlicht'.In the last decades it became a more independent left wing newspaper but circulation continued to drop and the paper was discontinued on 28 April 1990.
