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 Independent’s Chief Sports Writer Jonathan Liew and Football Writer Jack Pitt-Brooke hosted a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) on Friday evening
A wide variety of topics were discussed, from which country has the loudest fans, to Argentina’s decline under Jorge Sampaoli to how the pair’s impressions of Russia have changed over the last three weeks.
And yes, somebody asked Jonny who he thinks will win Love Island. He answered Megan. He’s only watched one episode, to be fair.
To relive the conversation, check the Reddit thread below.
The pair are well-placed to answer questions on the tournament having been in Russia covering it for the past 15 days. Jonny watched Lionel Messi inspire Argentina to an incredible victory over Nigeria, England put six past Panama in a record-breaking win and Japan lose to Poland and yet reach the knockout stages regardless (although the less said about that one the better). Meanwhile Jack has been covering England, including that dismal defeat to Belgium.
