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.

After last week telling both Harry Redknapp and Adel Taarabt to end their weight row, Tony Fernandes has thrown some humour on the situation.

The Queens Park Rangers owner, who apologised to fans who had been “embarrassed” by the row between the two parties, took to photo-sharing site Instagram to show off his less than ripped torso.

He posted: “Getting ready for Villa.”

Bottom of the table QPR will be hoping to build on an impressive performance against Liverpool last week, where they twice fought back in the closing stages only for Steven Caulker to score an injury-time own goal.

A win against Paul Lambert's Aston Villa would not move them out of the relegation zone, but it would lift them off the bottom of the Premier League table.
