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.There's nothing like a long running, highly charged (and often irrational) feud to stoke things up in the world of sport.

Andy Cole revealed in yesterday's Independent his detest for former England and Manchester United team-mate Teddy Sheringham. The basis of the feud? Sheringham snubbed Cole by refusing to shake hands as the former Newcastle player made his England debut.
In that one moment, a feud that has lasted 15-years began.
Here, we highlight some classic bitter relationships, where there was not only rivalry, but a true hatred between the parties involved.
