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.

A sexy Italian job
Fiat make sexy cars. Just take a look at the radically styled Fiat Coupe, or the open-topped, though left-hand drive, Fiat Barchetta. Fiat make practical cars too like the brilliant Punto supermini and capable Seicento City car. But in the competitive medium-car sector, the Fiat Marea struggles against the Ford Mondeo and Peugeot 406. Yet the Marea Estate Weekend is distinctive, useful and in HLX trim, very well equipped. So a 1998 R-registered example saving almost pounds 8,000 on the new price and with 12 months free insurance from Ryauto in Stourbridge (01384 393231) is worth considering. There is a choice of colours. Cost pounds 9,995
