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.Sussex's prospects of playing a meaningful part in the race for the title look to be fading fast.
After Warwickshire had punished a shoddy performance in the field by scoring 521, Sussex always faced a tall task if they were to avoid the follow-on, and their slim hopes disappeared when Murray Goodwin departed, six runs short of a century.
Chris Woakes marked his return from injury with four wickets and there were four also for the New Zealand off-spinner Jeetan Patel as Sussex were dismissed for 259 before being asked to follow on, closing on 71 for 2.
Warwickshire are looking for a fifth win in six matches, which would set them up nicely for a run-in that features only one match against a side currently in the top five in the First Division table.
Hampshire, who must await the verdict of a pitch panel looking at a Rose Bowl track that yielded 13 wickets to slow bowlers in the first two innings, will have fancied their chances of pulling off a first win of the season after left-arm spinner Danny Briggs took a career-best 6 for 65 to bowl Nottinghamshire out for 183, giving them a lead of 30. But then Notts and England left-arm spinner Samit Patel took the first five wickets as they stumbled to 86 for 6 in their second innings.
