خلفية ثقافية
Norway has a very high number of local newspapers. Almost every small town has its own 'lokalavis' which people read to keep up with community events. Reading the paper is inextricably linked to 'morgenkaffe' (morning coffee). It is a sacred time of peace before the workday starts. Norway is one of the most digitized countries. Most people now 'leser en avis' on a tablet or phone, but the phrase remains the same. Norwegian libraries (bibliotek) are popular places to read newspapers for free. They often have a dedicated 'aviskrok' (newspaper corner).
Use the definite form
If you are talking about the paper you usually read, say 'Jeg leser avisa'. It sounds more natural to native speakers.
Don't say 'lese nyheter' for physical papers
While correct, 'lese en avis' is much more common when referring to the actual publication.

It can be both! In Bokmål, 'en avis' (masculine) is standard, but 'ei avis' (feminine) is also correct and very common in dialects.
Yes, absolutely. If you are reading the digital edition of a newspaper, you are still 'leser en avis'.
VG (Verdens Gang) and Aftenposten are the two biggest. VG is more tabloid, while Aftenposten is more serious.
You can say 'Jeg leser nyheter på nettet' or 'Jeg leser nettaviser'.
