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.

Rockstar have announced the inclusion of their Grand Theft Auto series in the Victoria and Albert Museum’s British Design 1948–2012: Innovation in the Modern Age exhibition.

The exhibition, running now through August 12th, explores how British designers have responded to economic, political and cultural forces that have fundamentally shaped how we live today, spanning the time period from the 1948 ‘Austerity Games’ to this summer’s Olympic Games in London.

Representing each Grand Theft Auto title in the franchise and showcasing the innovation of living metropolises and open world gameplay, the exhibit features a commemorative video chronicling the history of Rockstar’s series.
