Asked about the intensity of the carbon debate and the media's responsibilities, Ms Gillard issued a blunt appeal to reporters. “Don't write crap,” she said.

“It can't be that hard,” she said. “And when you have written complete crap, I think you should correct it.”

She said the “volume of crap” had changed over the years, due to the demands of modern media.

“I'm not suggesting in the past everything we read was wonderfully accurate.

“But I think with the new media environment, where you are both restless and relentless with content ... I think the quality of the content is possibly lower just because the volume has had to be higher.”
