Last year Julia Gillard told journalists at the National Press Club: “Don’t write crap. Can’t be that hard.” Should Australia’s media’s standards be raised? Is regulation an answer? What is the future of political reporting, given the financial conditions for newspapers? George Megalogenis from The Australian, ABC Online writer Annabel Crabb, the Sydney Morning Herald’s Peter Hartcher, the Federal Opposition’s Communications spokesman Malcolm Turnbull, and former press secretary to Kevin Rudd, Lachlan Harris, tell the ABC’s Barrie Cassidy what responsibility the media bears for our political culture. Presented by Sydney Writers' Festival, May 2012
