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.

Host Jack Pitt-Brooke, chief football writer Miguel Delaney and sports reporter Samuel Lovett discuss the Women's World Cup as they take a closer look at wider perceptions of the sport and comparisons wrongly drawn with the men's game.

Attention then turns to the Young Lion's campaign at the U21 European Championships in Italy, where the likes of James Maddison and Phil Foden will be looking to prove their worth.

Miguel offers a quick run-through of the transfer market before ending on Jonathan Liew's recent one-on-one interview with Asif Kapadia, the director of the new Diego Maradona documentary.
