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.

Mustafa Ameen – the so-called "man in the hat" – has vowed to sue former light-welterweight world champion Amir Khan unless he apologises for comments relating to his role in last month's fight against Lamont Peterson.

"Amir Khan is going to have to apologise because I am in the process...I will litigate this," Ameen said. "I am already in discussions with some of the most successful legal firms in Britain regarding the slander, the libellous statements that have been made against me by Amir Khan and other individuals in the press."

Khan and his team have drawn attention to Ameen's presence at ringside interacting with WBA supervisor Michael Welsh.
