Letter: New man at the BBC
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.

Sir: Could you please clarify something for me? Because of his affiliations with the Labour Party it was felt necessary for the BBC presenter Melvyn Bragg to resign his position on Start the Week. Yet Greg Dyke, who has or had close ties with the Labour Party, has just been appointed Director- General of the very same organisation. Have I missed something?
