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.AFTER SEVERAL weeks discussing events of world importance, Resigning Issues (9am R4) gets parochial, as Stephen Bayley joins Fergal Keane to explain why he quit the Millennium Experience. Keane, developing into a fairly tough interviewer, may even get him to say something he hasn't already said in numerous newspaper articles. George Gershwin's older brother, Ira, gets a look-in with Pogani's for Lunch (9pm R2), an entertaining, name- dropping selection from his diaries kept during a trip to Europe in 1928. This week's Voices (4pm R3) features the amiable Thomas Allen (right), talking about and performing music by Vaughan Williams, Britten, Cole Porter and Mozart.
