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.

John Carver has returned to Newcastle United for a second spell as assistant manager.

The 46-year-old, who fulfilled the same role under Sir Bobby Robson between 1999 and 2004, has joined until the end of the season. "I'm delighted to be bringing John on board," manager Alan Pardew said. "He has an excellent track record and knows this club very well."

After leaving St James' Park following Robson's sacking in 2004, Carver has worked at Leeds, Luton, Plymouth and Sheffield United. He also spent a year as manager of Major League Soccer side Toronto.
