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.

Eleanor Stephens, sex psychologist and executive producer of The Love Weekend (C4 Fri, Sat, Sun) on The Good Sex Guide (Mon ITV): 'Sex Talk, which I produced three years ago, encouraged people to talk about sex and I'm delighted to see the subject still being tackled in The Good Sex Guide. I've enjoyed their humorous approach but I think it's a bit thin on information and it does verge on the coy. Actually, The Good Sex Guide has been completely overtaken by The Lovers' Guide and other such sell-through videos. The Lovers' Guide is weak on safe sex education, but it has been extremely informative, it's absolutely frank and holds nothing back. Anything that encourages the viewer to talk to their partner about sex is good. Despite my reservations about The Good Sex Guide, if it's taught one man where the clitoris is then it's done well.'

On Valentine viewing: 'Sex is an important part of love, and therefore Channel 4's The Love Weekend has tried to cover the full range between chocolate boxes and condoms. I notice that BBC2's A Night of Love (Sat) has taken a more traditional view of love with a more conventional output.'
