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.

A new short film written and directed by Taylor Swift will arrive later this month.

The musician hinted that the video, which will star Sadie Sink (Stranger Things) and Dylan O’Brien (Maze Runner), will arrive on 12 November.

“November 12. Remember it,” Swift captioned the short teaser. The teaser featured a brief clip of a car driving down a quiet, autumnal road.

Last week, Swift and Jennifer Hudson inducted Carole King into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Swift paid tribute to the musician with a live performance of the iconic singer-songwriter’s track ‘Will You Love Me Tomorrow?’

Swift also delivered an emotional speech where she explained King’s influence on her own writing.

She said: “I was raised by two of her biggest fans, who taught me the basic truths of life as they saw it: that you should treat people the way you want to be treated, that you must believe that you can achieve whatever you want to in life, and that Carole King is the greatest songwriter of all time.

“Her songs speak to the true and honest feelings that everyone has felt, is currently feeling, or hopes to feel one day. So it is only right for them to be passed down like precious heirlooms from parents to children, older siblings to younger, lovers to each other.

“These songs come to you from somewhere else – a loved one, a friend, or the radio. And then, suddenly, they are partly yours.”

In 2019, King presented Swift with the Artist of the Decade Award at the American Music Awards.
