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.

The ATP Tour has announced that Jeff Tarango has been fined a further pounds 13,000 and suspended from Tour events for three weeks for his post-match interview remarks after defaulting at Wimbledon against Alexander Mronz.

The top seeds, Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf, yesterday drew potentially dangerous first-round opponents for the US Open starting on Monday. Agassi plays another American, Bryan Shelton, and Graf will play the South African, Amanda Coetzer, who beat her last week in Toronto.
