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's Steve Jobs will be the opening night speaker at the "D: All Things Digital" technology conference, organizers said, a rare public appearance by the co-founder of the California company.
The 55-year-old Apple chief executive will be interviewed by conference co-producers Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg on the opening night of the event to be held June 1-3 near Los Angeles, they said.
Other speakers at the conference will include Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Ford CEO Alan Mulally and "Avatar" director James Cameron.
Jobs, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2004 and underwent a liver transplant last year, last appeared onstage at a "D: All Things Digital" conference in 2007.
The visionary behind the Macintosh computer, iPod, iPhone and iPad rarely grants interviews or appears in public outside of Apple-hosted events.
