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.

Pierre Perrone writes that "Albert Eccles became Clint Warwick by putting together the names of his favourite singer, Dionne Warwick, and his favourite actor, Clint Walker" [obituary, 3 June]. Clint had forgotten the real roots of the name, so he started this story, writes Pamela Phelan. It was Danny King (lead singer with Danny King and the Dukes, with whom Clint played bass before joining the Moody Blues) who named him, after the county they lived in.

At the time of his death, Clint had just done the vocals for one last song, called "Dreamstone" and written by Jon Fox. It was débuted at the funeral service.
