Had to read this in reader mode because while the text of the article was in English, the cookie pop up was in what I’m guessing is Norwegian, and covered most of the space where the text is. Who does that?
Not going to lie, it seems a bit presumptuous to expect that a local Norwegian source has every aspect of their site optimized for English readers. Aside from the Norwegian text, it was a standard cookie click-through.
Edit: this reads hostile, I mainly want to point out that not every site online is in English and expecting that shouldn't be the norm. I've read excellent Chinese only articles through translation services, it seems unfair to expect everyone to default to English to share their knowledge. Especially now with AI translation being a thing, it seems unfair to criticize a local news source for focusing on their local language. Reading non-English sites is easier now than ever, and translation errors are worth being able to read about more of the world's ideas. There are ideas that don't spread to the wider web simply because the author wrote them in their native language. When it's so easy to get a machine translation that isn't perfect but is serviceable, I have trouble complaining about language issues.

Not at all, when they're presenting an article written in English.
The setup is a bunch of journalism students trying to do an expose on a man who they believe is a bear poacher, and then it’s down the rabbit hole for another hour.
