History

Perspective
ADH TV was launched in 2021 by Jack Bulfin and two friends including Jake Thrupp[3] after the channel's parent company Australian Digital Holdings was registered with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission on 25 November 2021. Alan Jones was announced as its first host on 10 December, having left Sky News Australia in November.[4] His show − Alan Jones: Direct to the People − aired its first episode on 13 December.[5]
The channel relocated to purpose-built studios in Chippendale, an inner city suburb of Sydney on 2 May 2022, and came at the same time as Jones returning to the channel for a show with his name.[1]
In July 2023, Billionaire businessman and investor James Packer invested in ADH TV, although the total value is unknown.[6]
In November 2024, ADH offered to buy the 93 free-to-air television stations owned by Southern Cross Austereo.[7]
In December 2024, it was announced that ADH TV would become a local version of Newsmax in 2025. [8]
On 27 February 2025, it was announced that ADH TV had purchased the remaining televisions assets of Southern Cross Austero. These assets included 7 Network regional affiliates in Tasmania, Darwin, Spencer Gulf, Broken Hill, Mt Isa, and Remote Central and Eastern Australia, as well as Network 10 regional affiliates in Tasmania, Darwin, Spencer Gulf, Broken Hill, Mt Isa, and Remote Central and Eastern Australia and Nine Network regional affiliates in Spencer Gulf and Broken Hill.[9]
