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.Hondurans went to the polls yesterday to pick a new president in one of the most bitterly- fought political campaigns since the country ended military rule just over a decade ago, AFP reports from Tegucigalpa.
The race to replace President Rafael Callejas, who ends his four-year term in January, has Oswaldo Ramos Soto of the ruling National Party running neck-and-neck against Roberto Reina of the Liberal Party.
Mutual mud-slinging by Mr Reina and Mr Ramos Soto has drawn protests from the Catholic church and the media.
