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.IN TONIGHT'S clash, Aston Villa vs West Ham (7pm Sky Sports 1), supporters of John Gregory's promising team will be hoping that the new midfielder George Boateng and goalkeeper David James help the team improve on their poor form at the end of last season. While Gregory (right) has invested well, Hammers fans will also be looking to their new signings - Paolo Wanchope and Stuart Pearce - to lift Harry Redknapp's side.
Director Steven Soderbergh made a huge impact with his debut, Sex, Lies and Videotape, which won the Palme D'Or at Cannes. His offerings since have so far failed to live up to that promise. However, Kafka (8pm FilmFour), made in 1991, is an intriguing examination of that most mesmerising of writers (played with haunted intensity by Jeremy Irons). With Theresa Russell and Ian Holm.
