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.For many Top Gear fans, Amazon purchasing Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May’s next motoring show was somewhat of a disappointment.
All of a sudden, instead of just a regular TV license, to watch The Grand Tour you would need a not-cheap Amazon Prime account, meaning many were going to miss out on the show.
With Christmas just around the corner, Amazon has decided to make the first episode from the record-breaking series available for free until Boxing Day. Read our review of the first episode, which took place in South Africa.
Over the weeks, The Grand Tour has caused all sorts of controversy. Most recently, episode four was heavily censored in India for using ‘cow organs’ for a joke.
The show also became the most illegally downloaded TV show in history, reportedly beating the likes of Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead.
The Grand Tour is currently reaching Amazon Prime every Friday.
