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 Rolling Stones are on course to have their first No 1 album for 16 years, sales figures suggest.
A revamped version of Exile On Main Street has sold 1,000 copies more than its closest rival, The Dance by Faithless. The album was a No 1 when initially released in 1972, and a documentary about its making was due to be given its premiere at Cannes yesterday. The Stones last topped the album chart in 1994.
Meanwhile Robbie Williams is set for one of his worst singles chart positions as the new version of "Three Lions" just made the Top 30. He provides vocals for an overhauled version of the football anthem.
The track also features a chart debut for the comedian Russell Brand.
