From the "Australian" ABC news

"It has come to my attention that some people are upset about a deadpan joke I made about camels yesterday," Ms Burnett said on CNBC.

"I made a deadpan joke about the Prime Minister of Australia, about the wild camels."

While Ms Burnett appeared contrite, her co-anchor Mark Haines made light of the issue while she was speaking, holding a stuffed toy camel and making a sobbing sound.

"This one is crying," Mr Haines chimed in.

Ms Burnett then invited Mr Rudd to appear on CNBC.
