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.An item in Chris McGrath's column, 'Vested interests of sport's rulers will turn turf into wasteland' (30 October 2010), commented on Paul Roy's position as chairman of the British Horseracing Authority, a member of the Horseracing Betting Levy Board and a partner of NewSmith Asset Management LLP, in the context of his company's investment in the recent flotation of Betfair. The article may have been taken to suggest that Mr Roy was guilty of providing insider knowledge in relation to the investment in Betfair. We now accept that any such suggestion was without foundation. We apologise to Mr Roy for this suggestion.
