The newspaper published its first copy on 27 May 1927, as the Føroya Social Demokrat, and originally it was associated with the Social Democratic Party.[1][2] From 1945 to 1955 the newspaper circulated under the name Føroya Sosial-Demokratur.[2] In 2006 the Social Democratic Party sold their part of the shares to a new company, Miðlahúsið, that was owned by the newspaper's management, employees and Føroya Tele.[2]
Sosialurin sold 7,300 copies daily as of 2000, and was the second largest newspaper in the Faroe Islands after Dimmalætting.[3]
