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.The Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye talked of "injustice" after being handed a three-match ban for violent conduct in Saturday's FA Cup defeat at Brighton.
Cabaye had denied deliberately kicking Albion defender Adam El-Abd at the Amex Stadium and contested the Football Association charge without success – as well as last night's Premier League game at Blackburn he will miss the upcoming matches against Aston Villa and Tottenham.
Reacting to the verdict, Cabaye tweeted: "3 matchs ban it's a real injustice but life goes on !!! In my teammates i trust ..."
Manager Alan Pardew had been hopeful of getting the charge dismissed, claiming he had the support of El-Abd, who had initially branded the kick deliberate but apparently wanted to speak out on Cabaye's behalf.
