Former Insiders host Barrie Cassidy has launched into a Twitter tirade against the ABC for their 'bizarre' election coverage.
Cassidy, 72, critiqued his former employer's reporting on the election results in a series of tweets as the Australian Labor Party emerged victorious on Saturday night and Anthony Albanese was named as Australia's 31st Prime Minister.
The veteran journalist, who has covered past elections at the public broadcaster, took issue with how the ABC tended to focus on the Liberal Party over Labor's win.

'This ABC coverage is really quite bizarre. There’s barely any mention that we have a new government,' he wrote.
