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.

Thought up by marketing company Stylophane, the newly launched Facebook Fashion Index has been called the "Wall Street of Fashion" by internet blog The Next Web (thenextweb.com) due to its ability to monitor the global growth - at least in terms of social media - of fashion brands.
Here are this week's most popular labels and their growth rates:
1) Zara (new, 2,085,775 fans)
2) H&M (+2.89%, 1,690,916 fans)
3) Lacoste (+1.28%, 1,690,916 fans)
4) Burberry (+1.51%, 915,596 fans)
5) The Art of Travel by Louis Vuitton (+4.26%, 889,521 fans)
6) Ray-Ban (+1.42%, 812,404 fans)

9) Ralph Lauren (+2.72%, 598,544 fans)
10) Ed Hardy (+0.74%, 538,286 fans)
Divided into four categories (Platinum: more than 100,000 fans, Gold: 10,000 - 100,000, Silver: 1,000 - 10,000, Bronze: 10 - 1,000), Stylophane's rankings are updated daily (and expressed in graphs), and new brands can be added upon request.
