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.

A slew of the biggest names in music are preparing to join forces for the forthcoming FireAid benefit concerts, dedicated to raising money for the Los Angeles communities that have been devastated by the wildfires.

Tonight (January 30), there will be two concerts held. The first will take place at L.A.’s Kia Forum beginning at 6 p.m. PST, followed by the second at the Intuit Dome beginning at 7:30 p.m. PST.

Both shows boast an impressive lineup, with the first featuring the likes of Alanis Morisette, Green Day, and Pink, and the later show headlined by Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Stevie Wonder and many more.

Tickets to the live concerts are currently on sale on Ticketmaster for $99, with all venue and ticketing service fees waived and 100 percent of the proceeds going to FireAid relief efforts. Kia Forum attendees will have the opportunity to view the Intuit Dome show on screens inside the venue and vice-versa.

For those who are unable to attend the in-person concerts, don’t worry because there will be several live streams available to tune into from the comfort of your own home.
