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.

Glee star Cory Monteith has been admitted to rehab for 'substance addiction'.

Monteith's representative told People magazine that the actor had "voluntarily admitted himself to a treatment facility or substance addiction". People reported the news on its website.

This is not the first time in rehab for the 30-year-old actor, who plays Finn Hudson in the Fox TV series.

He had treatment when he was 19 and has spoken about his addiction struggles, saying he had a serious problem and took just "anything and everything".

In 2011 he told Parade he was "lucky to be alive".

Monteith is dating Glee co-star, Lea Michele, who told People that she loved and supported him and was proud he was going to rehab.
