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 Indy Football Podcast begins 2018 with a review of the packed festive period, discussing the winners and losers from Liverpool’s sackful of points to Southampton’s sorry state.

Chelsea picked up two coasting wins but is their season turning into a non-event after the triumph of 2016-17? They face teetering Arsenal on Wednesday night, who enter January with the prospect of losing Alexis Sanchez to Manchester City.

Guardiola’s league leaders finally failed to win a match when they drew with Crystal Palace, who continue to impress under Roy Hodgson’s steady management. Can they finish the season above the likes of struggling Stoke, West Brom and Swansea?

Join host Ed Malyon, London football correspondent Jack Pitt-Brooke and sports night editor Lawrence Ostlere for the first 2018 instalment of our award-nominated podcast as they review the festive action.
