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.

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.Hull yesterday ruled out a possible merger with Hull Kingston Rovers, the Second Division leaders, which would probably have seen the amalgamated club placed in the Super League next season. In a statement, the club said: "The lack of any financial package to assist in the unification of the clubs and the subsequent difficulties in strategic planning prohibited such a scheme."
