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.

ANYBODY fleeing the new, chatty Radio 3 in search of wall-to-wall classical muzak will have to go much further than Classic FM. When the station introduces 'Nick Bailey with The World's Most Beautiful Music' at 6am on Monday 7 September, the tunes will be punctuated by news, sports reports, finance, weather and traffic. At 9am Henry Kelly takes over ('Bach, Brahms and banter from one of Ireland's best-loved exports'), and you can stretch your mind further: 'Call him on the HUM Line to discover the title of 'that' tune. Put a bob on the nag's head with Henry's horse, pick a concert from the Gig Guide.' Expect a boom in breakfast TV.
