History edit

 
Glas Srpske building in Banja Luka

It was first issued as Glas on 31 July 1943 as a bulletin of the People's Liberation Movement in Bosnian Krajina region during World War II in Yugoslavia.[5] The issue was published in the village of Župica with the first redaction including Skender Kulenović, Ilija Došen, Đuro Pucar, Rada Vranješević, Vilko Vinterhalter, Osman Karabegović and Boško Šiljegović.[5] Osman Karabegović recorded that the redaction and printing press moved to Ribnik in August of that year.[5]

For some time it went under the name Banjalučke novine and from 1963 it was again under the name Glas, until 1983 it was a daily newspaper. Between 1973 and 2007 the newspaper published the David Štrbac daily comic created by Miro Mlađenović (1949–2007) who was inspired by Petar Kočić’s literary work.[6]

Since 2003 it goes under the name Glas Srpske and it is a private newspaper, one of eight newspapers in Bosnia and Herzegovina.[7]
