The 4ZZZ newsroom asked questions daily of Queensland's notorious premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen.

Through the riots, protests and police intimidation, an unstoppable group of 4ZZZ journalists remained bent on exposing the murky underbelly of Queensland politics during the Bjelke-Petersen reign, which would be a laughing stock if the consequences weren't so serious.
