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.Cardiff have confirmed they have rejected a bid for midfielder Joe Ledley from an unnamed club thought to be Stoke.
Barclays Premier League side Stoke are believed to be the suitors who have offered in the region of £5m for the midfielder's services, but the Bluebirds are standing firm in their commitment to keep hold of their key players.
A statement on the club's website read: "Cardiff City can officially confirm that we have received a bid for midfielder Joe Ledley.
"We have spoken to the player and the club concerned to reinforce the fact Joe Ledley is not for sale and is an integral part of our squad."
Ledley has been the focus of increased speculation throughout the summer, with Cardiff reportedly rejecting a £4.5m bid from Stoke only last week.
