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.

A 2001 edition of Vogue featuring Kate Moss in queenly attire and an issue of Empire with Star Wars character Darth Vader on its front have made the shortlist for the greatest cover of the century.

The 10 shortlisted covers were selected by members of The Professional Publishers Association at a ceremony last night as part of the organisation's centenary celebrations.

Other favourites competing for the coveted title include the first edition of Cosmopolitan and an issue of the Radio Times featuring the return of the Daleks on Doctor Who.

Members of the public can vote on their favourite cover and the winner will be announced in November.
