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.

Found on the Web: The Last Word

THERE ARE internet sites aplenty out there in cyberspace catering for fans and followers of all persuasions. However, that kid who could not cut it as a player and so became a referee, has been somewhat neglected - until now. Continually ostracised by players, managers and fans alike, referees are fighting back. Their first step in this George versus the Dragon saga has been to create their own little site - all you Paul Alcock wannabes can seek solace at The Last Word. The site gives a comprehensive list of the laws of the game, exciting news updates in the world of decision- making, and best of all a forum so that all the men in black can get together and have a good moan about how difficult the job is.
