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.

CONSIDER THIS piece of nonsense: "All war is evil, but Nato's attack on Yugoslavia is worse than that: it is a mistake". (Leading article, 28 March) I was under the impression national newspaper leaders were written after an editorial conference which discussed the "line" to take. Clearly yours was not, otherwise you might have wondered how "all" the Nato members, together with the politicians of their member governments, could agree that this action is needed, yet you, the Independent on Sunday, cannot see the point.

Yes, it is amazing that the people the democratic nations elect to run our affairs all agree on the same line and have the will and guts to get it going. But it is also wonderful. I am only glad that virtually every other paper wholly backs our leaders. Shame on you that you are the odd one out.
