Asbestos drama highlights role of probing journalist | The Australian: WE'VE all heard of the courageous Bernie Banton and his legal battle against James Hardie for compensation for the victims of asbestos, of which he too was one.

Banton, a former employee of James Hardie, died in 2007 from terminal asbestos-related cancer, mesothelioma.Not many people, however, have heard about Matt Peacock, a journalist who played a pivotal role in uncovering the corruption and spin of the asbestos industry over three decades, from the 1970s until today.
