As an European, I'm struck by depending on media outlets announcements. Here we have official government committee, which gathers official results from all districts, sums the results and proclaims winner. Does USA have official, federal bureau for election results?
The press are getting the results from state officials. Those results are announced by electoral officials, and the press, being the press, then puts those results up on websites.

Currently interim results are being shared.
Not all votes have been counted. I think they have now stopped finding and printing new ones though, but that took a while too.
Final results are not known and have not been announced by anybody, because they're not known.
