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.Naked Sport (C4 Monday) exposed the brutal business of boxing: 'Michael Marley, a former sports journalist on the New York Post, is now a promoter hell-bent on getting his protege, Shannon Briggs, a fight with the reigning world heavyweight champion, Evander Holyfield. Marley's gym is called, appropriately perhaps, the Sewer . . .' Paul Bailey, Guardian.
'Marley pointed out the Hotel Chelsea to his prospect: 'That's where Sid Vicious wound up his career: you remind me of him, cos' you're vicious in the ring.' Naked Sport could turn into a great series.' Peter Paterson, Daily Mail.
'If half of you wanted nothing to do with the whole squalid circus, the other wanted to be ringside, cheering.' Max Davidson, Daily Telegraph.
