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.

They have shot a video showing what it would be like to represent Google in human form. In an office, people queue outside Google's door before being admitted to post their query. One teenager asks for pictures of Kate Winslet from Titanic, while another young man reluctantly seeks information on Mississippi.
The highlight is when "Google" mocks the man for misspelling the American state, and subsequently refuses to give him the answer to the question.
Playing the part of Google in the video is actor Brian Huskey, who has featured in comedy hits such as How I Met Your Mother, This Is the End and Step Brothers.
