- Notes:
- The Adelaide Advertiser was first published as a broadsheet titled The South Australian Advertiser on 12 July 1858. On 1 April 1889, the main publication was re-branded as The Advertiser.
In 1929, the Advertiser was sold and the The Herald and Weekly Times gained a controlling stake.
The Advertiser came under majority ownership of the Murdoch family in the 1950s and was fully acquired by Rupert Murdoch in 1987. Advertiser Newspapers Ltd remains a Newscorp subsidiary.
In the mid 1950s, the Advertiser briefly introduced colour on its comics page. On Thursday 21 May 1953, it published the first Australian issue of the UK Eagle Magazine, with a preview on pages 2 and 5 of the Advertiser that day (http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-page3962659). - Keywords
