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.A Swiss court has rejected an appeal against the publication of a document that names senior Fifa officials who took bribes from ISL, a collapsed marketing agency.
Sepp Blatter, Fifa's president, promised to release the Swiss court document detailing a 2010 settlement over the collapse of ISL earlier this month but a legal challenge forced a delay. The court has now decided the 41-page document can be made public, although the ruling is set aside for 30 days for appeal. The document is believed to implicate former Fifa president Joao Havelange and Ricardo Teixeira, the man in charge of the 2014 World Cup. Both men deny any wrongdoing.
