  • PBL and WIN to join forces?

    May 2 2007 11:04am (UTC+8)  -  Article by Pun

    WIN Corporation's Bruce Gordon and PBL Media's James Packer are reportedly joining forces in the battle to purchase Channel Nine Adelaide, which has been Adelaide's top rating station for 5 years, and is currently owned by Southern Cross Broadcasting.

    Reports suggest that the two companies are considering a non-competitive offer for NWS-9 (Channel Nine Adelaide), which was the first television station to broadcast in South Australia. This comes just a day after PBL Media purchased Newcastle based television station NBN for $250 Million from SP Telemedia, outbidding WIN Corporation by $50 Million.

    If Nine Adelaide is purchased, this would mean all metro Channel Nine stations will be owned by PBL and WIN, making a more manageable platform for advertisers looking to buy into the Nine Network.
