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.

Apple has hosted its first event of the year, unveiling a whole host of new products.

The company unveiled a brand new iPhone SE, an updated iPad Air, as well as a new Mac Studio and Display that features its latest “monster” M1 Ultra chip.

There was no announcements surrounding the Mac Pro, which Apple said was “for another day”.

All the latest products featured significant improvements in terms of specs, with both the iPhone SE and iPad Air featuring 5G capabilities.

The ‘Peek Performance’ event was live streamed on Apple’s website, which you can view at the top of our live coverage below.
