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.

Come later today for the latest on the tennis final, which ends around 10:00pm. Meanwhile, read below what happened in the semi-finals last night:

Rafael Nadal ended Roger Federer's hopes of finishing a disappointing season on a high note, defeating the six-time champion 7-5, 6-3 Sunday in the semifinals of the ATP World Tour Finals.

It was Nadal's first win over his old rival on an indoor hard court and his 22nd in 32 matches overall.

Nadal, who will end the season as the No. 1-ranked player, is bidding to win the elite year-end event for the first time. He will face either Novak Djokovic or Swiss debutant Stanislas Wawrinka in Monday's final.

Federer, who has been hampered by a back injury this season, has won only one title over the past 14 months. He played aggressively early on but faded after losing the first set, making too many mistakes to threaten the Spaniard.
