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’s Oscars nominations day, when Hollywood’s finest learn whether or not their latest films and performances are in the running for little gold men.

The good news is that just because most of us are flung around the world in places far less glamourous than Hollywood, we can still enjoy the excitement via a YouTube live stream of the announcement.

Directors Guillermo del Toro and Ang Lee will join actor John Krasinski and Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs to reveal the nominees at 5.30am PT, or 1.30pm GMT.

The first nominees announced will be those for film editing, original song, animated feature film, animated short film, live-action short film, documentary, visual effects, production design, sound editing and sound mixing.

Next up will be lead actor, lead actress, supporting actor, supporting actress, director, best picture, original screenplay, adapted screenplay, cinematography, original score, costume design, foreign language film and makeup and hairstyling.

The star-studded Oscars ceremony takes place on Sunday 28 February at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre.

Chris Rock is hosting for a second time after a first stint in 2005 when Million Dollar Baby won Best Picture.
