Time magazine has selected incoming US leaders Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as its 2020 Person of the Year.

Time’s editor-in-chief Edward Felsenthal says Mr Biden and Ms Harris won the honour for “changing the American story, for showing that the forces of empathy are greater than the furies of division, for sharing a vision of healing in a grieving world”.
