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.

Sunderland have recorded a loss before tax of £27.9m, latest figures have revealed.

The annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 July, 2010 show losses rose by £1.4m on the previous year. Turnover rose to £65.4m, but investment in the squad in a bid to retain Premier League status pushed the club further into the red.
