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.A new village for the television soap Emmerdale is to be built on a famous country estate. Yorkshire-Tyne Tees Television yesterday won approval to build the village film set in the grounds of Harewood House, near Leeds, home of Lord Harewood, a cousin of the Queen.
The new set will be used to film outdoor scenes of the programme. The television company has agreed to contribute pounds 50,000 a year to a conservation fund for the estate.
