Letter: World Cup whingers
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 World Cup will be starting shortly, and you will get the usual moans about too much football on television, so I should like to retaliate first.
Soaps: Brookside three times a week, EastEnders three times a week, Coronation Street three times a week, Neighbours every night, Home and Away every night. I don't watch any so they should all be taken off the air. (My opinion matters more than the millions who watch these shows.)
Dramas: Sorry, social history was boring enough at school; I do not want to see it on the box.
Quizzes and gameshows: Yuk! Take them all off.
Lots more football and motorcycle racing please.
