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.Nick Mallett has thrown his hat into the ring for the England job – but the RFU will have to wait until June to secure his services.
The former South Africa head coach is out of work following the World Cup, after leaving his position in charge of Italy. He intends to take an eight-month sabbatical from the game but has opened the door to taking the reins of England's off-course chariot in the future.
England-born Mallett, 54, said: "I've not spoken to anyone about international coaching positions. But I would consider each on their own merits if it happens."
