Your support helps us to tell the story
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.Nigel Worthington has revealed his frustration at failing to speak to Newcastle's Shane Ferguson about a call-up to the Northern Ireland squad for tonight's Euro 2012 qualifier against Estonia.
"I've been trying for the last 36 to 48 hours," said Worthington. "It beggars belief when you read in the press that people want to represent their country and when you give them the opportunity to do so there's no willingness to say 'No, I don't want to be involved', or 'Yes, I'm coming'."
