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.

CHRIS MORGAN, Barnsley's defensive hero in the draw at Old Trafford on Sunday, is out of his side's FA Cup fifth round replay against Manchester United due to his third ban of the season.

Morgan has been outstanding since breaking into the Tykes' first team a month ago and proved inspirational at the heart of the defence in the 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.

However, Morgan, who turned 20 on Friday and then made only his fifth appearance for Danny Wilson's side 48 hours later, has been collecting yellow cards in the reserves.

Morgan's suspension means he will be sidelined for Saturday's trip to Coventry in the Premiership and the return match with Alex Ferguson's side at Oakwell next Wednesday.
