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.

ANYONE WHO'S interested in how the melting-pot aspirations that underlie the European Union work in practical terms should harken unto Group Seven (11am R4). This documentary follows the collaborative efforts of a group of international students at Insead - Europe's answer to Harvard Business School - and finds that language barriers pose no obstacle to insults.

Performance on 3 (7.30pm R3) features the sort of "Eighties music" that didn't make it into the NME, including "Earth Dances" by Harrison Birtwistle (right).

Night Waves (10.45pm R3) picks at the scab caused by recent comments from Michael Nauman, the German Minister of Culture, about Britain's obsession with the war.
