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.The TV presenters over at Desnudando La Noticia don't know when to stop.
They got naked to wish Venezuela luck before the tournament. They did it again after the team won their opening group match and even when they lost their following two matches.
And throughout the tournament, one presenter has been using her breasts to predict the result of matches.
She's surprisingly reasonable.
Paul the Octopus is long gone, and where plenty have tried and failed to step into the cephalopod's suckery shoes, we may have found an heir to his crown.
