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.

BOTH JULIA ROBERTS (right) and Rupert Everett had spent a few years in the box-office doldrums before the comedy My Best Friend's Wedding (8pm Sky Premier) spectacularly relaunched their careers. In this satellite premiere from PJ Hogan, Roberts plays a restaurant critic who has just four days to halt the planned wedding of the man she loves (Dermot Mulroney). In an attempt to woo him away from his fiancee (Cameron Diaz), she calls on a gay friend (Everett) to pose as her boyfriend. In just a few scenes Everett steals the film.

The assassination of the American president John F Kennedy, has been the source of many conspiracy theories, which were further stirred up by Oliver Stone's movie, JFK. A two-part film, The Men Who Killed Kennedy (8pm Bravo), investigates fresh evidence.
