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.

RICHARD SAVILLE, finance director at the housebuilder Wimpey, has clear views about what kind of newspapers his customers read. Yesterday Mr Saville complained about all the doom and gloom spread by quality newspapers like The Independent about the economy in the last 12 months, with tales of the Asian crisis and the collapse of the rouble.

Mr Saville added thoughtfully: "... although we do not normally associate our buyers with the readers of those kind of newspapers."

So its tabloids only for Wimpey home-owners. Fascinating
