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.

First published in 1868 - Whitaker's annual Almanack is packed full of all the facts, figures and trivia about the year gone by.

Whitaker's Take 2016 has all the most vital information about what's been happening the first twelve months.

How much do you remember?

It's been a great year for music - another spectacular Glastonbury has been and gone, Adele has dropped a record breaking album and streaming services have continued to revolutionise how we listen.

We still, of course, did terribly at Eurovision.

If you consider yourself a music lover, you'll remember all the important events this year.

Right? Take our quiz to test yourself.
