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.

After 11 years of misery, in Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s words, came 90 minutes of melancholy. New era, same Manchester United? A first defeat to Fulham at Old Trafford since 2003 made for an inauspicious start after the new co-owner’s investment was confirmed. Turning United around was, Ratcliffe had rationalised, more than just a case of flicking a light switch. Repeat this result – and wretched performance – against Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup and Manchester City, however, and the danger is that the lights go out on their season.

Manchester United vs Fulham

United have looked a different team since the start of the year, and are yet to lose a game so far in 2024 in all competitions (W6 D1). They've won their last four Premier League games in a row, holding on last weekend to beat Luton Town 2-1 to extend that run, and a fifth consecutive win here would move them level on points with Tottenham in fifth. They have a good record against Fulham, going unbeaten in their last 16 league games against the Cottagers (W13 D3).
