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.Tottenham's failure to sign a new striker means new coach Andre Villas-Boas will give youngster Harry Kane a chance.
The manager has no choice but to start Jermain Defoe up front at Newcastle today and put 19-year-old Kane on the bench. The youngster's presence could only be temporary before a reputable forward arrives, most probably Emmanuel Adebayor, by the end of the month, but Villas-Boas insists Kane will be given a chance. He said: "He will be part of our plans this season".
Tottenham are today without Scott Parker (Achilles) and Real Madrid-bound Luka Modric.
