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.

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.

Your support makes all the difference.In what could be his final league game for Arsenal, Bacary Sagna starts at centre-back for Arsenal against the effectively relegated Norwich City at Carrow Road today. Jack Wilshere, who has not featured since suffering a foot injury playing for England in March, is on the bench for Arsene Wenger's side, boosting the midfielder's chances of making Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad.
The usually right-back Sagna, who is out of contract at the end of the season, was quoted in Europe1 yesterday as saying: "I'm out of contract, as everyone knows. I still consider myself as an Arsenal player at present.
"But actually we had a small problem to agree [with the club], and I don't think I'll stay at Arsenal at the end of the season."
In addition, on his 28th birthday, Abou Diaby is on the bench again for the Gunners, and Lukasz Fabianski starts in place of Wojciech Szcesny in goal, an indication that regular No 1 Szczesny will start in next weekend's FA Cup final against Hull City.
