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.Today’s a big day for tech fans in the US– the iPad officially goes on sale.
With Apple promising that the cyber slate will run almost all of the existing 150,000-plus apps currently available on the corporation’s app store, it’s set to up (app?) the ante for games designers who have been developing titles for the iPhone and iPod touch. There’s no official date yet for a UK launch (web gossip points to the end of the month) but one hacker already claims to have jailbroken Apple’s new toy. Some things never change.
