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.

Jay-Z's latest album, Magna Carta Holy Grail - who says Kanye's the only one with a God complex? - just leaked to the world - and he's totally cool with it.

That's because Jay-Z leaked it himself, via a deal with Samsung phones that netted him an estimated $5m. In exchange Samsung last night gave away 1 million copies to their customers.

So what's the early word from the interwebs?
