Fairfax New Zealand history
In 1841, John Fairfax purchased the Sydney Morning Herald, acquiring and founding more titles as the business expanded. John Fairfax Holdings, as the company was originally known, founded The Australian Financial Review in 1951, and Fairfax-owned television stations ATN and QTQ began broadcasting in the same decade.
Fairfax acquired New Zealand’s Independent Newspapers Ltd in 2003, and appointed its current CEO, David Kirk, in 2005.
