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.

THE Society of Authors has recruited 58 writers to support its campaign for keeping the Net Book Agreement, the cartel that prevents shops from cutting the price of most new books. The 58, including Monica Dickens and Lady Antonia Fraser, have contributed to a pamphlet called What Price Reading? in which they give their reasons for supporting the agreement. Sir Victor Pritchett sums up the general view by saying he does not want his books 'treated purely as merchandise'.
