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.

It was the Grammys last night, the biggest music awards show of the year and a galaxy of pop stars was out doing GIF-worthy things. But, alas, only five can make the Independent Voices cut which, statistically speaking, makes this a more exclusive prize than an actual Grammy. Here they are then, in reverse order of greatness...

5. Jay Z shouts "You're welcome!" to Fun after they accept their award. Replace that sophisticated brandy glass with a can of Tenants Super and this is a very different picture. (Gawker)

4. Tyler the Creator and Frank Ocean's mum celebrate the brilliance of Ocean's 'Forest Gump' performance, in their own personal ways.

3. Taylor Swift dances like nobody's watching. Which is almost true. Apart from the 40 million plus people watching around the world. (dailydot.tumblr.com)

2. Justin Timberlake has been threatening to do this for some years, but here - caught for all eternity in GIF form - is the exact moment he brought sexy back. (nymag.com)

1. Chris Brown earns Adele's scorn (note the stink eye) and everyone else's by sitting down during a standing ovation for Frank Ocean, due to their recent falling out, presumably. Rihanna, WHY?? (Buzzfeed)
