[edit] History
The company was first established on November 29, 1880. Since then, the paper has been operated by two other companies: it was purchased by Independent Newspapers Limited (INL) in the 1970s, and acquired by Fairfax Media (then John Fairfax Holdings) on July 1, 2003, when that company purchased INL.
