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.

Your support makes all the difference.Carlos Tevez and Roberto Mancini have finally had a telephone conversation, leaving the Manchester City manager convinced that the Argentine will play in good faith next season if he fails to find another club.
"I spoke to Carlos four days ago because his telephone is working again," Mancini said, a reference to the hardware failure that prevented them speaking at the time Tevez was spotted meeting with the Internazionale sporting director, Marco Branca, while in Sardinia last month.
Mancini claimed Tevez's mood was good when they spoke last Monday. "Yes, he was happy. He told me he would come back on Monday. Everything was normal. He was happy. I am happy," said Mancini. "At the moment he doesn't have another team. So he'll play for us."
