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.A Channel 4 documentary will tonight reveal the results of an extensive survey into prostitution. The research shows that of the men questioned ,the majority live in London (24 per cent) and the South (29 per cent), with fewer coming from the North and the Midlands. Almost all the men were white, and evenly split between professional or skilled workers and manual or unskilled.
Prostitutes working in massage parlours or advertising through cards, magazines and newspapers proved to be the most popular, while kerb-crawling ranked as one of the least favoured methods of approaching a prostitute.
Witness: Men Who Pay For Sex, Channel 4, tonight, 9pm
