The entity was formerly owned by Fairfax Media prior to its merger with Nine Entertainment in 2018. In April 2019, Nine sold the business to former chief executive of real estate platform Domain Antony Catalano and billionaire Alex Waislitz.
In May 2024, one of the lawyers employed by ACM became associated with a plagiarism scandal involving the use of AI.[1] It was discovered that articles from other publications had been rewritten, but not attributed to the original journalists.
