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.Jamie Peacock hopes that Leon Pryce, a team-mate for country but an opponent when Leeds meet St Helens in the Challenge Cup on Sunday, will be spared jail when he is sentenced next month.
Pryce, along with Stuart Reardon, has admitted assault and been told to expect a prison term. "I think what they have done was wrong, but I'm sure it would be more beneficial for them to be sent to do community service," said Peacock.
The Celtic Crusaders' prop, Ryan O'Hara, has been sent a warning letter by the Rugby League for making an obscene gesture at Warrington supporters on Sunday. The Crusaders' Matty Smith could be out for the rest of the season after suffering a suspected broken ankle.
