Brisbane, 'Deep North', radical media, 4ZZZ-FMAbstract
Brisbane used to be called the Deep North. It spoke of a place where time passed slowly in the summer heat, where rednecks ran the parliament and the press, blacks died from beatings and the police thought themselves above the law. Even though Brisbane is situated in the bottom southeast quarter of the great northern state of Queensland, its sobriquet represented a state of mind.
