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.Harry Styles dominated the 2023 Brit Awards, winning all four of the categories he was nominated in – including Album of the Year and Artist of the Year.
Wet Leg, who also earned four nominations, won the Best Group and Best New Artist awards as the biggest night in British music came to a somewhat predictable end.
Other winners included Beyoncé, Becky Hill, and The 1975.

Album of the Year nominees Styles, Stormzy, and Wet Leg all walked the red carpet, alongside stars such as Lizzo, Sam Smith, Shania Twain, and Jessie J.
Mo Gilligan returned to host the show for a second time after the comedian took over from Jack Whitehall in 2022.
The top prize category – Artist of the Year – attracted widespread criticism this year after no women artists were nominated. The Brits scrapped gendered categories last year.
The evening kicked off with Jessie J presenting the Brit statuette to FLO, after the emerging R&B trip were named as the winners of the Rising Star award. The trio are the first group to win the award.
This puts them in the same category as Adele, Sam Smith, and Jessie, who are all previous winners.
