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.Championship One club Oldham have sacked coach Tony Benson after Sunday's 42-16 defeat at Barrow sent them toppling out of the top six for the first time this year and effectively ended their promotion hopes.
The 45-year-old New Zealander, who has been coach for the past four seasons, was on a one-year contract.
Benson's assistant Martin Roden will take over as caretaker boss to the end of the season.
"I wish to place on record my thanks to Tony for all his hard work," said club chairman Chris Hamilton.
"I wish him nothing but good luck for the future."
