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 Indianapolis Colts' stampede towards a perfect season continued with a convincing win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night.
Peyton Manning passed for 245 yards and two touchdowns and running back Edgerrin James rushed for 124 yards to lead the Colts to a 26-7 victory.
James said, "We've got to stick with what we've been doing since the beginning of the season."
The Colts became the 11th club to start a season 11-0 since the NFL's inception in 1920. The last team to get off to a better start was the 1998 Denver Broncos, who won their first 13 games before losing.
The only team to have a perfect season in NFL history was the 1972 Miami Dolphins, who went 14-0 in the regular season and won all three post-season games.
