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.

A YEAR after the deregulation of television listings, the market for programme magazines is proving highly price-sensitive. In the Audit Bureau of Circulation's figures for the first half of this year the biggest gainer is IPC's What's On TV with a weekly sale of 1,401,031, up by 93.8 per cent compared with a year ago. At 33p, it is the cheapest title. Its up-market sister, TV Times, costing 55p, sees sales well down at 1,109,359. What's On TV could soon vie for market leadership with BBC Enterprises' Radio Times, which averaged 1,562,770 and has just gone up to 60p. Bauer's TV Quick (43p) has not yet published its figures, but they are expected to be between 650,000 and 700,000.
