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.After a suicide bomb goes off in an American compound in Saudi Arabia, the Saudi police are making a hash of the investigation, so it's up to Jamie Foxx and his FBI A-Team to show them how it's done. Most of 'The Kingdom' is a standard detective thriller, in which four sassy, gum-chewing, maverick Americans out-manoeuvre the incompetent, superstitious, red-tape-tangled Arabs. And then, in the last 20 minutes, it turns into a gory action movie, in which the Americans prove that they're a hell of a lot better at shooting than Arabs are, too.
