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.

With two of America's three network broadcast companies, ABC and CBS, sold in as many days, attention switched yesterday toNBC, the network owned by General Electric. GE is for now playing coy, saying that it intends to hold on to its network. It admits, however, that it has fielded several approaches from other players in the industry in recent days, and that it may be interested in forming a new alliance.
