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.

Cable channel for Scotland

Scottish Television is to launch a cable channel north of the border, the company announced yesterday. The chairman, Gus Macdonald, said that ITV companies should look more closely at prospects in the cable industry, where he said that there was scope for secondary market deals involving ITV and the new media. He also confirmed that Scottish and its 16 per cent owner Mirror TV were in talks that could lead to a Glasgow-based version of Mirror's LiveTV cable channel.
