September 1998 - Southern Cross Broadcasting announces it will purchase Adelaide's Channel Nine station (NWS-9) for $98 million, which led to redundancies for nearly half of the station's staff.
May 2001 - It announced a $217 million bid for Telecasters Australia, owner of television stations in regional Queensland, northern New South Wales, Darwin and Remote/Central Australia markets.
April 2002 - It purchased Spencer Gulf Telecasters, owner of regional South Australia's GTS/BKN stations.
30 May 2007 - It announced its sale of Channel Nine Adelaide to WIN Corporation for A$105 million.
3 July 2007 - Southern Cross Broadcasting recommended Macquarie Media Group's offer of A$1.35 billion, for a takeover of the corporation. The proposed Scheme is subject to approval by SCB shareholders at a Scheme Meeting expected to be held in October 2007.
3 July 2007 - If the sale to Macquarie Media Group is successful, MMG have a separate arrangement directly with Fairfax Media to on-sell to them Southern Cross Broadcasting's radio assets, as well as the Southern Star Group, Satellite Music Australia and their digital media businesses.
