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.Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand is eager to win the Premier League title - if only to stop Manchester City's fans from coming "out of the woodwork".
The Manchester clubs are locked in a battle for the trophy with United leading their cross-city rivals by a single point with nine games remaining.
City have not won a top-flight crown since 1968 and, after lifting the FA Cup last term, Ferdinand believes the blue half of Manchester has become more evident.
"Walking around in town, you see more and more blue shirts than you probably ever would have seen over the last 10 years," he told BBC Sport.
"Success sometimes brings people out of the woodwork.
"So fingers crossed we can delay that and make sure that we get this title sewn up this season."
