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.Sam Allardyce was caught up in a touchline row after one of his Sunderland players was slammed into a advertising hoarding by Norwich City winger Liam Brady.
In the opening minutes, with the ball running out of play, Brady unnecissarily shoved DeAndre Yedlin off the pitch - the Tottenham Hotspur loanee slamming head-first into the electronic hoarding.
Allardyce and fellow members of his bench immediately leapt to their feet to complain, while players from both sets of teams joined in a melee.
At first the former Bolton Wanderers, Newcastle United and West Ham manager stayed on the fringes, but then got involved when he saw Cameron Jerome, a Norwich substitute, involved in the altercation.
Allardyce pushed him away, then started bushing Brady and others.
