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.

Apple Watch series 6: Was £379, now £329, Amazon.co.uk
Apple’s latest, top-of-the-range smartwatch packs a full suite of health sensors, from an ECG monitor to catch a misbehaving ticker, to your usual step counters, sleep trackers, heart-rate monitor and blood oxygen level indicators. The Apple Watch series 6 featured in our list of the best smartwatches, and currently has £50 off at Amazon. Our reviewer fell in love with it, saying “the Apple Watch is easily the classiest smartwatch with gorgeous design and immaculate build quality”.
Apple Watch SE: Was £349, now £286.99, Amazon.co.uk
The Apple Watch SE is a more affordable entry in Apple’s smartwatch range and lacks the always-on display of the top-tier Apple Watch series 6, but we think the trade off between functionality and price is worth it. It features a screen that’s just as large and as pretty as the series 6, as well as a complete suite of health-monitoring sensors, fall detection and water resistance.
Apple Watch series 3: Was £199, now £169, Amazon.co.uk
Launched in 2017, the Apple Watch series 3 is an older model of the Apple Watch, but it’s far from over the hill. For years it was the undisputed king of wearables, and now it continues to be sold as a cheaper, entry-level alternative to the cutting-edge series 6 and the dialled-back Apple Watch SE.
It has all the core functionality you might need from an iPhone-compatible smartwatch, allowing you to control music and see and respond to notifications and messages without having to take your phone out of your pocket. The display looks sharp and the UI is responsive. You don’t get the fancy ECG monitoring of newer Apple Watches, but the most vital fitness sensors are all there, enabling you to track workouts, count steps and monitor your heart rate around the clock.
