Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

How do films make you feel? The Independent gets personal about cinema and TV with actors, directors, cinematographers and other people from the continually evolving world of “content” in a fortnightly podcast hosted by Film & TV Critic-at-large Christopher Hooton.

The one and only Tommy Wiseau sits down with us this week to talk life after The Disaster Artist, turning The Room into a musical for Broadway and the West End, his love of architecture, how great the movie Ocean’s 11 is, and his plans for a horror movie about how we only use 8% of our brains – in certainly our most directionless conversation yet.
