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 piano-playing dog is major currency on the internet, but a piano-playing dog who can also sing threatens to destabilise the viral economy.
This beagle has attracted thousands of retweets for his performance, a surprisingly mournful arrangement consisting of sparse minor notes and soulful howls.
Clearly channeling Arvo Pärt, the dog plays for a solid minute, wagging his tail with joy as he paws the ivories.
I'm not sure if he's applied for copyright but hook me up with the sheet music if not, the piano arrangement would sit perfectly under an emotional drama scene.
