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.

SEAN CONNERY (right) may have allegedly been denied a knighthood by the Government, but there is no doubting his popularity with audiences and producers. He has managed to escape 007 typecasting - he once said, "I have always hated that damn James Bond. I'd like to kill him" - to become like the proverbial good wine, just getting better with age. Perhaps most sickeningly, even well into his sixties, he continues to top polls to find the world's sexiest man. His enduring appeal is analysed in today's Action Heroes (2.15pm Sky Moviemax).

The two young Irishmen, David O'Leary and Martin O'Neill, have emerged as astute Premiership managers and they meet this evening in Ford Monday Night Football (7pm Sky Sports 1). O'Leary's Leeds United travel to Filbert Street where they meet O'Neill's Leicester City.
