GMB Faces Criticism Over U.S. Election Coverage

Good Morning Britain presenters Ed Balls and Susanna Reid faced viewer criticism over their decision to cover the U.S. election live from Washington, D.C., following a shake-up announcement on their show. Separately, Ed Balls stepped down from interviewing his wife, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, due to previous bias complaints after an earlier interview drew over 16,000 complaints to Ofcom. The watchdog decided not to investigate further, citing transparency about their relationship. ITV confirmed they would avoid similar situations in the future to ensure impartiality. Despite these controversies, ITV maintains that their coverage remains balanced and professional.
