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.

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.Rangers have vowed to fight any Uefa disciplinary action over sectarian singing after claiming "disproportionate focus" had been directed towards their fans. The club reacted with "utter dismay" after Uefa confirmed its control and disciplinary committee would discuss an alleged case of discriminatory chanting among supporters at the away leg of their Europa League game against PSV Eindhoven last month.
Meanwhile, anti-racism campaigners Kick It Out yesterday revealed they had contacted Uefa to express concern over the abuse suffered by Emmanuel Adebayor during Real Madrid's Champions League win over Tottenham on Tuesday.
The former Arsenal striker was the target of chants during the match at the Bernabeu, leading to allegations of racism against Spurs fans. Tottenham have vehemently denied the abuse was racist.
