Andersson tells Journalisten that he is surprised and that he cannot go into the reasons for the agreement.

No work environment reasons or cooperation difficulties have been stated.

Two years ago, Daniel Andersson, as an employee of the Sweden Democrats' communications department, went undercover for "Kalla fakta". In this way, he was able to reveal that the Sweden Democrats were running anonymous accounts that spread online hate. The report "Undercover in the troll factory" later won, among other things, the Guldspaden award for investigative journalism.

Daniel Andersson later wrote a book about his experiences and criticizes the occasional lack of support from the "Kalla fakta" editorial team.

According to program director Viveka Hansson, the settlement with Daniel Andersson has nothing to do with that criticism.
