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.A FOUR-YEAR-OLD boy died and his mother was seriously ill in hospital after fire ripped through a house in Blackcraigs, Kirkcaldy, Fife, early yesterday.
A neighbour battled to rescue Gordon Colville, 27, from the blaze. Firefighters managed to drag Connor Grieve, four, and his 24-year-old mother, Angela, from the house. All three were suffering from smoke inhalation and were taken to hospital, where Connor died. The cause of the blaze, which started on the first floor, was still under investigation.
