GNM’s coverage of the US election provided a great example of the power of its multimedia approach to reporting and commenting on the news. The Guardian’s ambition is to become the world’s leading liberal voice – guardian.co.uk already has up to 30 million unique users spread across the planet. Obama’s victory saw the site come into its own, covering a global story for a global audience with not only up-to-the-minute reporting, commentary and images, but also with its own unique audio and video content and interactive graphics. At the same time, the print versions of the Guardian and Observer continued to deliver award-winning news and comment to a weekly audience of millions.
The work of Guardian Films is another strand of GNM's multimedia reporting of international affairs.
