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.BARNSLEY have the lure of a trip to St James' Park if they can beat Manchester United back at Oakwell on Wednesday week, the 1-1 draw they managed at Old Trafford yesterday earning them a possible quarter- final tie against Newcastle. Despite having to replay, the champions remain favourites to win the Cup, though William Hill have lengthened their odds from 2-1 to 11-4.
After Arsenal's goalless draw with Crystal Palace yesterday, their manager, Arsene Wenger, did not feel the home draw against West Ham or Blackburn would be much of an advantage. "We didn't beat Port Vale here and we didn't beat Crystal Palace here so in the FA Cup we don't do well at home," the Frenchman said.
