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.

Glossy women's magazines, led by Company and Cosmopolitan, have been lynched for their soft-porn approach to sex. Now, panting along behind comes GQ, the men's magazine, with a really awful sex column, "Me and my pussy'' in which new columnist Ka te Spicer literally "puts her privates on parade''

The only consolation is that the issue also has a survey on what men really think of women, proving how conventional men are: they not only prefer blondes, but also like their partners 3in shorter.
