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.

Brendan Rodgers says he will be extending his contract as Swansea manager until the summer of 2015 within days. Last week chairman Huw Jenkins opened talks on improving the rolling one-year deal of the man who guided City to Premier League promotion in his first season at the club, and Rodgers confirmed: "We're pretty much there. Once the paperwork is done then hopefully over the course of the weekend [the three-year deal] will be agreed and everything signed. I'm very honoured to lead such a marvellous club."
