He also campaigned against censorship and defended the First Nations rights and those of the incarcerated.ABC chair Kim Williams shared his condolences, describing Peacock as a trusted and beloved journalist.“Since starting at the ABC as a cadet in 1973, he was dedicated to pursuing the health impacts of asbestos in different communities, defending the marginalised and giving a voice to people who needed their story to be told,” Williams said.“Our audiences trusted him and knew him as a courageous and principled journalist who pursued those who hid from their responsibilities.“He loved the ABC and believed in its integrity and standards, and he urged his colleagues to uphold these values without compromise.“We will miss his friendship and advice. Our sincere condolences go to his family and friends.”Camera IconVeteran ABC journalist Matt Peacock has died, aged 72.
