Talk of the trade: Drawn to attention
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 British sense of humour is not dead, according to Steve Way, editor of the Cartoonist, which publishes its fifth issue this week. The circulation of the fortnightly publication is around the 40,000 mark and copies can be found as far away as the Orkneys. Mr Way says: 'Britain is increasingly hysterical, as everybody is under pressure, but the healthy, toilet humour is still intact.' Mr Way and the Cartoonist's publisher, John Sorrell, will be describing how the paper was set up at a meeting of the European Society for News Design at the Financial Times cinema next Wednesday, 2 June, at 7.30pm. Guest speakers include our own Michael Heath and Barry Fantoni. Further details: Andy Chappin, 071 873- 3328.
