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.

It would seem that the buying public can’t get enough of GTA-type titles as Sleeping Dogs returns back to the top of the all formats chart, for a third week all told, as last week’s chart topper Guild Wars 2 falls down to sixth after a storming first week.

The other winner in the chart is EA’s The Sims 3: Supernatural expansion pack which haunts second spot and marks the only new entry in the entire top 40.
