To say Southern Cross Television began with TNT-9 is not correct. The name "Southern Cross TV8" was first associated with Victorian TV stations BCV-8, STV-8, GLV-8 in the early '80s. TNT-9 was a completely separate entity until it was bought by Southern Cross Broadcasting in 1988, and the company re-badged all stations as "Southern Cross Network" in March 1989 to reflect the addition of TNT-9 to the company.

It is also incorrect that Fred Archer is labelled the first person to appear on TV in Tasmania, given that two other TV stations (ABT-2 and TVT-6) were broadcasting in Tasmania since 1960 - two years before TNT-9. Andjb 11:38, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Southern Cross have never used the "gottaloveit" slogan either. At the moment there doesn't appear to be a regulalarly used slogan apart from "Tasmania's Number 1". 121.44.221.38 (talk) 09:21, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
