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.Steven Davis is doubtful for Northern Ireland's friendly against Hungary tonight at Windsor Park as he is dealing with a family matter. The Rangers midfielder was expected to join the squad last night but instead has remained at home with the backing of his international manager, Nigel Worthington.
"Steven had an issue to deal with over the weekend and had dispensation to join up with us yesterday evening," said Worthington. "But he has had other family news and our thoughts and prayers are with him. However he wants the door left open if things change and I'm more than happy to do that. But the nature of the situation is we have got to prepare with what we have at the moment."
Worthington is likely to give a first cap to the Derry winger Niall McGinn, who has been impressive in training. Full-back Ryan McGivern, on loan at Morecambe from Manchester City, seems certain to get an outing in the absence of George McCartney.
