Letter: The gospel truth
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.Sir: The idea that there is little Christianity on radio and television beggars belief ("BBC puts Christ back into Christmas", 21 December).
The Daily Service, Prayer for the Day and Thought for the Day (formerly Lift Up Your Hearts) are prominent examples of long-standing regular programmes in which religionists, usually Christians, can promulgate their beliefs unchallenged.
What would those of other beliefs, not to say politicians, not give for such an unfettered privilege? As for my own stance, which is secular humanism, I have never seen it featured on radio or television.
