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.

Sir: I am sick of Princess Diana.

I am a paperboy for my local paper shop and of late my paper bag has become substantially heavier as a result of all the newspaper supplements of "exclusive photos" that I have to deliver. On Sundays the load is worse! As well as all of the normal magazines there are tribute edition specials that you have to wrestle with for about five minutes before you get them through the letterbox.

Diana may have been the People's Princess but she also did pretty well for The People on Sunday, The Sun, The Mirror and The Guardian, to name but a few.
