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.The name of Kenny Dalglish will be thrown into the hat when the Football Association's selection committee meet to discuss Terry Venables' successor today.
Jimmy Armfield, who has been canvassing opinion within the game, confirmed last night that the Blackburn Rovers director of football is a candidate. The Scot is understood to be keen on the prospect.
"We would prefer an Englishman, but we have to seek the best man for the job," Armfield said. "At this stage we have not drawn up a shortlist, but we will be discussing how to go about it."
Bryan Robson, it seems, has ruled himself out but he suggested his namesake Bobby Robson as a possible alternative. "He's been in the job for eight years, he got us to the semi-finals and he always qualified for the World Cup," the Middlesbrough manager said.
Venables has added Liverpool's Robbie Fowler and Stan Collymore to his squad for training this week at Bisham Abbey.
David Batty, left out of the Blackburn side on Saturday, is to have talks with his manager, Ray Harford, today, with Newcastle believed to be ready to offer pounds 2m.
