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.

Protest over Internet porn

A British company is showing what it claims are the world's first full- length soft porn films on the Internet.

The London-based Adam and Eve Channel, which said its catalogue would eventually increase to several hundred titles, insisted it had taken every step to ensure under-18s could not enter the Web site.

The scheme was condemned by Family and Youth Concern, an Oxford-based campaigning group, whose deputy director Cornelia Oddie said: "There is nothing good to be said about this. How can they be sure that children under 18 will not see these films?"
