In 1953 the group from the Labor Party's left wing won, led by [[Karl Evang]]. The editor and spokesman for the group was [[Sigurd Evensmo]], with [[Finn Gustavsen]] as the co-editor. They also had the support of the Labor Party, such as the party's first [[Prime Minister of Norway|Prime Minister]], [[Christopher Hornsrud]].
The group's party line was an alternative to the third way, critical of both [[Moscow]] and [[Washington DC]].

''Orientering'' was almost silent about the Labor Party's newspapers, something which contributed to increasing interest.
