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.

Player to watch
Bobby Zamora. A full international now, can he take confidence from his Wembley appearance and finally fulfil his promise?
Squad worries
New signing Philippe Senderos is already out for some months – which makes it imperative to keep Brede Hangeland.
Manager speak
Mark Hughes. Something to prove, especially to Manchester City, and capable of doing it in a saner environment. Will benefit from lower expectations and profile.
Story of the summer
Woy’s Boys are no more. Following Hodgson’s departure, the silver-haired Hughes is in, much to chairman Mohamed al-Fayed’s delight.
Last season 12th
Suffered from impressive run to Europa League final.
This season 9th
Without European distraction, can regain League ground.
