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.

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.

The club had hoped to build a sports village on the site of the present stadium, but now admit that it might have to be scaled down or developed in stages.
"We understand why Bradford Council, like local authorities up and down the country, have had to make the decisions they have with their cash," said the Bulls' chairman, Peter Hood.
The former Bradford captain, Robbie Hunter-Paul, has been released from hospital after being taken off on a stretcher unconscious after a clash of heads while playing for Leigh against Sheffield Eagles.
"I have a little bit of nerve damage that will probably take a week to settle down," said the former Robbie Paul, who has added his wife's surname to his following his recent marriage.
