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.

In Satan's Name (ITV Tuesday) played merry hell with reviewers:

'People you would hesitate to share a table with in an all-night cafe believe that a secret satanic network is infiltrating positions of power. The question we must face after a sleepless night tossing and turning is which of the royals are satanists?' Nancy Banks-Smith, Guardian.

'The sight of people in distress - moaning, screaming, growling like a dog - has never before evoked so little pity. These people should be slapped and sent home. 'That woman is not possessed]' I yelled. 'She is doing an impression of Sigourney Weaver in Ghostbusters]' ' Lynne Truss, Times.
