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.JOE JORDAN is expected to succeed his former Scottish international team-mate, Lou Macari, as Stoke City manager before the weekend.
Jordan, 42, previously in charge of Hearts and Bristol City, became assistant manager at Celtic during the summer and agreed to take over on a temporary basis following Liam Brady's resignation last month.
However, Jordan left the following day as it became clear that Celtic's main target was Macari. Chic Bates, the former Shrewsbury manager who has led Stoke to three successive First Division victories as caretaker manager, will now link up with Macari again at Parkhead.
Eric Cantona was yesterday banned by Uefa from attending his own 'trial' on charges of alleging corruption among European referees. Neither the French striker nor any Manchester United representative will be allowed to attend when a Uefa disciplinary commission discuss Cantona's conduct in Zurich tomorrow.
