FED:Barnaby sorry for staffer's 'shut up' comment to journo

One Nation MP Barnaby Joyce has apologised to a journalist after a staffer told her to "shut up", in the latest in a string of run-ins between the populist party and the press.

The exchange between Richard Henderson, a media adviser to One Nation leader Pauline Hanson, and a Guardian Australia reporter was captured by TV cameras as an Adelaide press conference announcing the party's gas policy was winding down on Thursday.

As the reporter attempted to ask Senator Hanson a question about Senate pre-selection at the next federal election, Mr Henderson could be heard shouting over her.

"We're done, thank you. No, no, no. Shut up. We're done," he said as Senator Hanson and Mr Joyce began to walk away.
