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.NOT MUCH sport to speak of on view this week, writes Paul Trow.
The end of July is traditionally quiet - long gone are the Derby, Wimbledon, Grand Prix and Open. ITV and Channel 4 have detected the lull and responded accordingly. But minority interests must be humoured, so we have a final glimpse of the Tour de France today, Dutch Open golf highlights on Sport AM in Tuesday's early hours and a soccer cameo, The Linesman, that afternoon.
On the other side, there is non-stop coverage of something called the 'Olympics'. Adding spice to this elitist dish is Test cricket from Headingley, the NatWest Trophy quarter-finals and racing from 'Glorious Goodwood'.
As I said, a quiet week.
