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.Lord Sugar evidently isn’t used to missing out on the big prizes in life. When his reality show Young Apprentice lost out to reality show Made in Chelsea at the British Academy Television Awards last night he might have clapped politely but soon made his displeasure felt elsewhere.
The business mogul, currently appearing in the ninth series of The Apprentice, took to Twitter to vent: “Young apprentice did not win a Bafta tonight .Made in Chelsea won. Can't believe it.”
The BBC show had been up against The Audience, I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! and reality show MiC in the Reality and Constructed Factual Category.
The BBC recently decided not to recommission Young Apprentice, a teenage version of Lord Sugar’s competition to find his next employee (or in this year’s case to invest £250,000 in a new business venture).
