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.

Jeremy Beadle's You've Been Framed, a ratings success in the past, seems to have lost some of its popular appeal. In the series screened earlier this year, the programme peaked at an audience of 19.3 million and never dipped below 15m. The first two episodes of the new series have recorded audiences of 10.45m and 10.53m. The Sunday prime-time show is hardly up against strong competition either: its challenger on BBC1 is the sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, which also hits the 10.5m mark.
