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.Luis Suarez's latest shenanigans have won him the scorn and disgust of almost the entire footballing world, but now it appears he has earned himself opprobrium from much further afield.
Musician Bruce Springsteen is the latest to jump on the Suarez-bashing bandwagon, as vilification of the Uruguayan striker spreads to unlikely places.
'The Boss' claimed to have been watching the World Cup "a little bit" but he had strong words for football's maleficent masticator following his actions against Italy.
"What are the rules about biting in the World Cup?" he asked TMZ
"There probably should be one. Biting has no place in sports."
It is yet to be established whether or not Suarez is a big Springsteen fan, although presumably if so his favourite song is 'Hungry Heart'.
