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.ENGLAND'S Peter Marshall and Simon Parke failed in their bid to reach the final of the Mahindra international challenge in Bombay yesterday.
Marshall, England's No 1, came close as he led the top-seeded Brett Martin by two games before finally losing 11-15, 12-15, 15-8, 15-13, 15-5.
Parke can take credit for taking the attack to Sami Elopuro of Finland before going down 15-9, 6-15, 15-11, 15-9. Apart from the second game, which he won brilliantly with a series of scorching winners, Parke was guilty of making too many errors as he tried to force the pace and the Finn was content to play steadily and wait for the mistakes.
