Democracy means whoever got the most votes wins (which isn’t how the US works, but that’s a different criticism). It has nothing to do with doing extra work to determine how many votes other people got, as long as they count enough to determine the winner.
I don’t know if you’ve watched shows that have voting or not, but frequently they won’t count all the votes because they counted enough that no one else can win (or lose) based on the current tally and number of votes remaining. Doing anything extra doesn’t help determine the winner. It isn’t their job to do more.
If a law is passed that gives them this requirement, sure they have to do it. It isn’t a requirement for democracy though.
Eh… During the evening the media doesn’t care once a winner is chosen but yes they count all votes and yes knowing how many votes each party got is part of the democratic process, it let’s people know their vote got counted and if the party they support did better or worse and parties want to know that to know if their message was better than last time
