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.

Sir: The motorway crash two nights ago is every parent's nightmare, and the agony that we share with the victims' families and friends is pictured so dramatically in the anguished photograph on today's front page.

However, I would suggest that this photograph is an even greater invasion of privacy than the recent much-publicised photographs of the Princess of Wales. How do you suppose that poor schoolgirl feels at having her soul bared on the front page of a national newspaper?

Yours faithfully,

FIONA GOODWILLE
