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.APART FROM the inevitable 1 April current-affairs teasers, there's some grim listening today. Crossing Continents (11am R4) examines the rising levels of youth violence in France, where teacher morale is allegedly at an all-time low.
What If? (8pm R4) considers the possibility of terrorist attacks against civilians using biological agents at a time when President Clinton has acknowledged the likelihood of an incident occuring somewhere in the US within the next 10 years. Despite assurances that such matters are taken seriously here, it makes for alarming listening.
Thankfully, archive material of Kenneth Williams (right) At the Beeb (9.30pm R2) is on hand to assuage anxiety.
