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.Maybe it's an infinite number of monkeys and typewriters type situation with regards to the internet, but for some reason the opening sequence of The Lion King has been stripped of its score and simply had a few pertinent sound effects added in, and the results are surprisingly captivating.
"Listen to that Serengeti soundscape without the drama," the creator wrote on VidMe; it's interesting how, without the dramatic 'Circle of Life' soundtrack, you're really drawn into every moment, as birds migrate over a waterfall and elephants walk the desert.
"Euphoric," one Redditor commented. "Honestly, if they did the EXACT same think for the live action one with gorgeous imagery I'd be more than fine."
