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.

CELIA BRAYFIELD asks us to point out that her interview in Writing magazine, which caused complaint by Shirley Conran when it appeared in July/August 1994, was given before terms of settlement of an earlier dispute with Ms Conran were agreed in June and indeed before the dispute had even arisen (Independent on Sunday, 7 August).

Ms Brayfield had not sent the offending CV to Writing magazine and was not aware that it had a copy. We accept that she did not breach her undertaking to Ms Conran in June to refrain from issuing the CV again, and we apologise to Ms Brayfield for having suggested that she had.
