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.

Police have admitted that documents relating to the death of Amy Winehouse appear to have been delivered to the wrong address by accident.

It is understood that a report detailing the circumstances of her death, which was intended for her family, was received by a stranger. It was handed in at a north London police station on Friday night.

A spokesman for Scotland Yard said: "Police were informed that material relating to a forthcoming inquest may have been delivered to an incorrect address. Inquiries are now underway to establish the full circumstances of this matter."

An inquest into the death of the singer, 27, left, is to reopen tomorrow after a post-mortem examination was inconclusive.
