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.The troubled DJ Andy Kershaw's two-year stint in the wilderness may be about to end after his former boss at the BBC gave a clear signal that he wants him back. In an interview with The Independent on Sunday, Roger Wright, controller of Radio 3, who resuscitated Kershaw's career in 2001, said he would welcome his old friend back on air. "I'm still in touch with Andy and the door is not closed... he's ready. I'm in contact with him."
The Rochdale-born presenter had a weekly world music show on Radio 3 until the summer of 2007, when problems in his private life came to a head. He was arrested and imprisoned in August of that year for breaching a restraining order that prevented him from seeing his ex-partner.
