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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Mediaset, the Italian television and advertising group has made an official request to financial watchdog Consob for a quotation on the bourse. Mediaset, at present controlled by Silvio Berlusconi's Fininvest, announced on 24 May that it was delaying for five days a decision on the price range for a Milan stock market flotation planned for June.

Doubts grew over whether the flotation would take place after Milan magistrates earlier this month issued arrest warrants for seven employees or former employees suspected of being linked to alleged falsification of Fininvest's accounts.

Consob is due to report by the end of the week whether it will allow Mediaset's listing to go ahead.
