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.Thierry Henry has apologised for swearing at an Arsenal fan following his side's defeat at Swansea on Sunday.
Henry was seen gesticulating at a supporter following the 3-2 loss at the Liberty Stadium.
"I was really shocked and disappointed on Sunday, and not just at the result," Henry told The Sun.
"After the final whistle of a very tricky game, I insisted the whole team go and applaud the Arsenal supporters.
"When I arrived in front of our own fans, I couldn't understand the abuse the team were getting from one of them.
"I wanted to tell the fan in question that we need their support not abuse. The sentiment was right but in hindsight could have been better expressed.
"So I would like to first and foremost apologise for using inappropriate language to that particular 'supporter'.
"I didn't intend to be malicious or threatening and am aware that it could have been said in a calmer manner."
