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.LAWRIE SMITH, the British skipper on the European W60 Intrum Justitia, yesterday saw his hopes of winning the fifth leg of the Whitbread Round the World race falter in the heat of the Equator. Only a week ago, Intrum Justitia held a three and a half hour overall lead in the W60 class following the dismasting of Tokio. Now, Intrum Justitia is 155 miles behind her closest rival, Yamaha.
