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.

Michael Jackson has spent two days in Scotland looking for a castle to buy and make his home. The pop singer was reported to be particularly interested in Invertrossachs House, 10 miles from Callander, said to be for sale at pounds 500,000 . Another contender is thought to be pounds 550,000 Glenmayne House sitting in 14 acres near Galashiels in the Borders.

Insiders with the entourage said Jackson wants to raise the child he and his wife, Debbie Rowe, are expecting in the clear Scottish air.

Jackson visited Stirling Castle, which is not for sale, and stopped off at the town's McDonald's to buy "value meals" for him and his staff, though he stayed at a four-star hotel on Loch Lomond
