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.

Spelling errors happen to the best of us, however when it happens on social media with an audience of 32.6 million followers - things can get a little bit embarrassing.

Kim Kardashian reached out to designer brand Giorgio Armani yesterday on Twitter to complain that her favourite foundation was being discontinued.

The reality TV star had a slight mishap in the spelling writing "Georgio" instead of "Giorgio".

Not one to overlook the shout-out - the brand swiftly replied, kindly offering to send the star the foundation and rather embarrassingly - correcting her spelling mishap.

Kim has previously expressed her love for the brand's Luminous Silk Foundation which is a hero product in the makeup range.

Although the star has cited beauty products from the brand, she is not seen regularly wearing clothes from the fashion house or attending its shows.

And after this rather public put down - we're guessing it's not very likely she will do anytime soon.
