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.Welsh international Gareth Taylor's move from First Division Sheffield United to Utrecht is in doubt. The striker appeared to finish his Blades' career with a flourish yesterday by scoring in United's 4-1 defeat of Charlton. He scored the first and then tossed his shirt into the crowd at the end as fans chanted his name. This appears to have led to the United board getting cold feet over a pounds 700,000 deal.
The United board are to discuss the situation within the next seven days, particularly as Utrecht have been told they might be able to sign fellow forward Jan Age Fjortoft. Should Fjortoft leave, the chance that Taylor would follow is remote.
