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.The Dundee manager, Jim Duffy, has praised the defenders Lee Wilkie and Lee Mair for their performances in Wednesday's Uefa Cup 2-1 defeat by Perugia.
"I think Lee Wilkie and Lee Mair were immense," Duffy said. "If you look at the goals, the first was a bit of a fluke and the second we got caught a little bit on the break. Overall, I thought defensively we were superb."
Hearts put their first league defeat of the season - against Rangers last week - behind them with an impressive Uefa Cup win over Zeljeznicar on Wednesday with goals from Mark de Vries and Andy Webster.
But they face a tough return leg in Sarajevo in three weeks' time to deny the Bosnian side any hope of salvaging their own European adventure.
