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.Gareth Bale is a doubt for Tottenham's match against Manchester United at White Hart Lane on Sunday after a hamstring injury prevented him from playing for Wales against Costa Rica this week.
Bale was assessed by the club's medical staff at their training ground in Essex yesterday and he will continue to receive treatment today and tomorrow. Club sources were keen to stress that the damage is not serious and that Bale is not expected to be sidelined for a significant amount of time.
Full-back Kyle Walker has also been receiving treatment this week, on an ankle problem, while playmaker Rafael van der Vaart was unable to play for the Netherlands against England at Wembley because of a similar injury.
