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.

The 2022 Brit Awards are underway, with Adele winning the first prize of the night.

The 30 star bagged Song of the Year for her single “Easy on Me”, before US pop artist Olivia Rodrigo won International Song of the Year for “Good 4 U”.

This year’s ceremony is being held at the O2 Arena in London, with comedian Mo Gilligan taking over hosting duties from Jack Whitehall.
