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.

Edelman has proved there is plenty of money in public relations as UK fee income leapt 26 per cent to £32.4m last year.

The American company, the world's biggest privately owned PR group, has focused on corporate and consumer work while other agencies have struggled with the financial downturn.

Creating digital content for brands was a growth area, with fee income from designing websites up 55 per cent last year to £6m.

Clients include MTV, where Becca Dudley is a presenter.
