Southern
Cross Broadcasting - 6PR and 96fm
Southern Cross Broadcasting is one of Australia's leading media companies. The Perth radio market has a total audience of more than 1.3 million people and Perth's 6PR has maintained its position as the leading talk radio station in the market. The station presents an entertaining mix of news, current affairs, sport and information, along with its exclusive commercial radio coverage of AFL football in the West. The format for 96fm programming is slowly changing to target a more mature and desirable audience. The change in format to attract the lucrative 25-39 demographic has met with immediate success where the station is now ranked number two in its market.

GWN The GWN Network was formed as a result of the merging of all the original independent telecasters in regional Western Australia. GWN now services the whole of Western Australia except for the Perth Metropolitan Area. GWN presents Australia's best line-up of high quality product. Programs of wide appeal are broadcast through the Network's programming affiliation with Channel Seven. Research firmly shows that many residents of regional Western Australia, in the absence of an otherwise reliable media delivery from the press, depend heavily on GWN television to fulfil their primary social, entertainment and informational needs.
