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.Tony Parsons' Without Walls film, 'Souled Out' (C4 Tue): 'Parsons' message that pop is no longer something central to growing up was convincing, but one couldn't help feeling that there was . . . a certain factor intimately connected with the age of the person listening to it.' Chris Peachment, Daily Telegraph
'Parsons whined like a demented but toothless rottweiler, determined to savage his victim but unable to inflict even a decent gumming . . . The pop scene remains, but try as he may, our presenter just cannot get at it.' Victor Lewis-Smith, Evening Standard
'He's an eloquent writer but dearie me, he's a terrible misery guts. But then he was once Mr Burchill: enough to sour a man for life.' Maureen Paton, Daily Express
