Ohlsson studied at Lund University, where he also was editor of the student newspaper Lundagård from 1980 to 1981. He then worked as a journalist for the newspaper Expressen from 1982 to 1985. From 1985 to 1988 he was a correspondent in the United States for the newspaper Sydsvenska Dagbladet and from 1990 to 2005 he was political editor-in-chief at Sydsvenska Dagbladet (which classifies itself as "independently liberal").
