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.

INDEPENDENT Newspapers Holdings, the South African subsidiary of Independent Newspapers, the media group which publishes The Independent, yesterday reported pre-tax profits of Rand 161.3 million for 1998, against Rand 176 million in 1997. Liam Healy, chief executive of Independent Newspapers, said that although the outlook for the local economy remained depressed and expectations for economic growth in 1999 were modest, the positive benefits of the group-wide restructuring exercise would position the group to take advantage of any upturn in the economy.
