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.

Those tabloid 'scoops' in short: Teddy Turner, who played Chalky White in Coronation Street, is dead; Des O'Connor is being lined up by CBS for a networked US chat show; Bob Carolgees is to fly to Croatia to entertain British troops; comedian and actor Mike Reid has bought a Spanish home next to Terry Wogan's; Murphy Brown, the show Dan Quayle branded immoral, won an Emmy; and Emma Sams revealed that she wears a flesh-coloured body- stocking during love scenes.
