        "http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment" : [ "Quentin Dempster is an Australian journalist and author.Dempster began his career as a cadet on the Maryborough Chronicle in Queensland, and moved to Brisbane's Telegraph, where he became the paper's chief political reporter.After joining the ABC he wrote and produced The Sunshine System, a documentary on institutionalised corruption in the Sunshine State, which exposed how senior police made hundreds of thousands of dollars a year from bribes and kickbacks linked to organised crime.The Sunshine System's revelations gave impetus to calls for a commission of inquiry into political and police corruption.The inquiry, headed by Tony Fitzgerald QC, ran from 1987 to 1989, and Dempster's re-enactments and analysis on the national 7.30 Report program brought the issue to a wide audience.In 1990 Dempster moved to Sydney to become the 7.30 Report's NSW presenter, heading a national investigative unit for the program in 1995 and covering the Wood Royal Commission into police corruption south of the Tweed.He later worked in a variety of roles for the 7.30 Report and Stateline and wrote three books: Honest Cops (1992); Whistleblowers (1997); and Death Struggle (2000) - the latter book bearing the tagline \"How political malice and boardroom powerplays are killing the ABC\".Dempster was made a member of the Order of Australia in 1992 for services to the media.
