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.Arsene Wenger, the new Arsenal manager, will curb players' drinking in an effort to end the scandals that have afflicted the club. The Frenchman will insist his players only drink on their days off.
Wenger said: "I will not ban beer completely, because one pint helps relax people. But I do not want the players drinking 15 beers, because that is bad. A footballer's body is his work. If he then destroys that with bad habits like drinking, it's silly. My players will have to change their social habits."
After the publicity surrounding Paul Merson and Tony Adams' alcoholism, Wenger is determined to focus attentions firmly on the pitch.
