ABC Friends today praised the ABC for its outstanding continuous coverage of the US Presidential Election over recent days.

Not only did Australians have access to reliable news as the count proceeded, but ABC staff had also initiated a wide range of interviews with both Australian and American experts who could give detailed insights into the election process.

This in depth reporting over several days was professional broadcasting at its best and demonstrates why the ABC is highly valued by the community.

Well done on all that research and many hours reporting.
