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.

But how was it for you? Comment at the bottom of this article and have your say on your team's season.
Who has been your best player this season?
Kenwyne Jones. 10 assists and 7 goals in his first season. Worth his £6m price tag!
Who would you be glad to see the back of?
Reluctantly Paul McShane. Too many mistakes and just not up to scratch.
What was your best performance?
Aston Villa away. There can be no complaints as we more than deserved our belated success.
And the worst?
Newcastle, at home. No fight, no desire, no determination. What can you say?
Who have been your toughest opponents?
Man Utd. Beat us 4-0 and capitalised on every mistake.
Best player faced?
Torres or Ronaldo.
Funniest/most bizarre moment of the season?
The linesman’s flag has flown off the pole a couple of times. Apart from that it’s been nail-biting.
Your perfect, but realistic signing?
Jonny Evans. We have him on-loan and he has the world at his feet. Brilliant defender.
Any reasons to be cheerful going into next season?
We’re playing in the Premier League, again!
Reasons to be gloomy?
No, not really. We have to enjoy it while it lasts and we’ll go on to even better things next year.
Who will you support in Euro 2008?
France or Spain. Not too bothered to be honest.
Overall assessment of your manager?
Keane’s kept us in the league with two games to go. A brilliant achievement, and he’s learnt from mistakes.
And overall assessment of your team?
They’ve tested our patience at times but as mentioned before, we’re staying in the Premier League, so credit goes to the players and the manager for a remarkable season.
