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.Banned from TV on its release in 1973 for being offensive, this documentary made by the photographer David Bailey features interviews with the artist and his Factory acolytes conducted in the spirit of Warhol's own pioneering techniques – Bailey in bed with his subject, for instance, with no obvious script (or questions) to hand.
Not as groundbreaking now as it was when shot, it still has its moments, not least Warhol's explanation of why you should always sit in the middle of a car seat.
