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.

ITV1 morning show Daybreak has bounced back by drawing a million viewers for the first time since its launch week.

The show - hosted by Christine Bleakley and Adrian Chiles - had seen its audience shrink, dipping as low as 500,000 at one stage.

But viewing figures have recovered to push back to seven figures yesterday. The edition had an average audience of one million.

The average for the week so far has been 923,000, marginally ahead of the launch week average of 915,000.

Guests over the past few days have included Dame Helen Mirren, Harry Hill and stars from I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here! and The X Factor.

ITV said the programme's viewing figures had been growing steadily since mid-October.
