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.

COURTENEY COX has not done too badly in the Scream movies, but generally the cast of Friends have not made a huge success of the transition from small screen to big. Fools Rush In (8pm Sky Premier, right), a satellite premiere, does little to buck the trend. In Andy Tennant's romantic comedy, Matthew Perry, the wisecracking Chandler from the TV sitcom, plays a prudish man who is obliged to marry a volatile photographer (Salma Hayek) after a one-night stand results in pregnancy.

Arsenal fans have spent most of the summer obsessing about the Nicolas Anelka transfer saga, so they must be relieved finally to be able to concentrate on football. Derby County vs Arsenal (7pm Sky Sports 1) may be a good opportunity for supporters to run the rule over such Highbury new boys as the French striker, Thierry Henry.
