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.Ex-Manchester United legend and Molde FK's new manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, revealed that he's been a big fan of football management games, specifically Championship Manager and its spiritual successor, Football Manager.
"I've played a lot of Championship Manager and Football Manager in recent years. Now I'm trying it for myself," he told Norwegian channel TV2 Sporten on his first day in charge.
However, he's resisted trying his hand as boss of the game's virtual Molde FK side - for that, he turns to the more action-oriented FIFA series, "but it hasn't gone so well," he joked.
When asked who his favorite transfers were, a crucial question for any Football Manager fan, Solskjaer declined to give a direct answer, allowing the interview to return to real-world matters.
