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.Beleaguered Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson is still hoping he gets an opportunity to shape his own side at Anfield.
So tough has Hodgson's start to his Reds career been that rumours have circulated the club's American owners, New England Sports Ventures, are looking for a replacement.
Hodgson, though, is keen to point out he is still by and large working with the squad he inherited from former boss Rafa Benitez.
"I'm hoping that one day I will get a chance to stamp a little bit more of my authority and philosophy on the team by choosing some more of the players," he said.
"Although it's not often mentioned I've not been that active in the transfer market since I've been here.
"The players here have done exceptionally well for me in accepting a new manager, but they are the ones you have watched for the past few years."
