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.During a visit to Chernobyl's exclusion zone, a team of Radio Free Europe journalists met a "rather thin-looking" fox.
He didn't seem to fear humans, having presumably not met many in the nuclear fallout zone, and trotted down the steps to approach them.
Taking pity on the fox, the group tossed it a few slices of bread and bacon
The fox didn't just gobble them straight up however, no, he wanted to do it right, carefully assembling a five-deck bacon sandwich with his jaw before making short work of it.
The moment made for a quick segment on the BBC News, drawing millions of views.
Just huge admiration for this fox's culinary skills. Definitely intrigued to see what he would do with 10,000 Doritos, salsa, guac and some queso fresco.
