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.

The 16-second preview for the long-awaited second trailer of the latest Marvel film has garnered nearly 2 million views just a few days after it went live on New Year’s Day.

The premiere of the second Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer is expected to be screened on 12 January during a US football game on ESPN at 8.30pm Eastern Time, with presumably a copy uploaded online shortly after.

The first trailer for the same film, which is a sequel to Marvel’s The Avengers, that was directed and written by Joss Whedon, had been released last year revealing scenes acted by an all-star cast including Robert Downey Jr, Chris Hemsworth and Scarlett Johansson.

The first trailer has received a colossal 63 million views so far since it was screened on the Marvel YouTube channel on 22 October.

The film will be released in UK cinemas on 24 April
