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 ARSENAL players may still be reeling from the events of last Saturday when Arsene Wenger's amazing act of sportsmanship helped to at least partially redeem football's often- tattered image. But they must put all that behind them as they focus on tonight's match, Manchester United vs Arsenal (7pm Sky Sports 1). A victory for the visitors, for whom Petit and Bergkamp are suspended, against the Premiership leaders could throw the title race wide open again. However, Arsenal's renowned defence will have to be at its best to hold the in-form United strikers.

Biography (9pm History Channel) recounts the life of Rasputin (right), the Siberian Eastern Orthodox mystic, who advised Tsarina Alexandra. He was reported to have got up to such misdeeds that a group of nobles bumped him off.
