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.

Woody Harrelson and Oren Moverman, the star and the director of the 2009 US Army drama The Messenger, reunite for a stylish police drama, co-written by James Ellroy, about an LAPD veteran who breaks at least as many laws as he enforces.

They've created a memorably monstrous anti-hero, but then the storytelling dissipates into trippy incoherence, which is frustrating in a film inspired by a specific police corruption scandal.
