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.Despite enjoying a 3-2 win over their English media colleagues, Scotland's football press are crying foul about their opponents' team selection for Wednesday's "friendly" match at Luton.
Mark Bright, the Sheffield Wednesday striker and a BBC Radio Five Live match summariser, scored the second goal for the English press team, after which the Scots claimed that the home side had broken a pre-match agreement not to field any current professional players.
The Scots' first goal was scored by a former professional: Gordon Smith, now of BBC Radio Scotland but once of Brighton and Hove Albion, Manchester City and Rangers.
Another triumph for the Scottish press saw them beat the English 3 and 2 in a matchplay golf tournament at Stratford upon Avon.
