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.

Xbox Live has gone down on the release date of the new Microsoft consoles, players have said.

Users found themselves unable to get online as the new console arrived in the hands of the public, they complained on social media.

Tracking website Down Detector showed a rush of people complaining they were unable to get online, around 6pm UK time.

The problems were focused on Europe and across the US, the site showed, though that may simply be a consequence of where people are trying to get online.

The Xbox Live Status website, which tracks outages, did not show any indication of problems. All systems were online with the exception of problems with Destiny 2, it showed.
