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.

Sean Fox will have to wait until next week to find out whether his attempt to clear his name over the Ice Saint affair has been successful after his appeal hearing at the Jockey Club's disciplinary panel ran out of time yesterday.

The hearing will reconvene next Thursday for closing submissions before the panel deliberates on a verdict.

Fox's ride on the gelding resulted in a 21-day ban as the Fontwell stewards decided he had intentionally stepped off the horse after jumping the ninth fence in a race on 8 March.
