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.

She looks like Sarah Palin’s leather-clad twin and can fire four guns at once. She uses her hair as an offensive weapon and wields a cobra-headed whip. She’s inspired lookalike competitions (although there’s no news on whether La Palin entered) and taken Japan by storm. Oh, and she can turn into a pather too.

Say hello to Bayonetta, a six-footplus witch who is the star of her own action title from Sega. Set to hit our shores in January, Bayonetta (the game) is billed as a blistering mix of combat and sorcery that is inspired by Devil May Cry. Created for the Xbox 360 and PS3, the game features five difficulty modes including “very easy automatic”, which allows players to fight by pressing a single button. With a kick-ass star and one-button attacks, ‘Bayonetta’ looks likely to cause quite a stir when she touches down.
