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.In last week’s Feral Beast, in the context of an item about a British presenter on Iran’s Press TV, Yvonne Ridley, we referred to a remark by her which implied that Dominic Lawson had been an MI6 agent. Mr Lawson, now a columnist on our sister paper, the Independent, has pointed out that this false allegation, originally made in 1999 by someone else, was denied not only by him but also by the then Foreign Secretary, Robin Cook. Apologies to Dominic.
