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.Romania's Mihaela Melinte had her hammer throw of 69.00m, set in February in Bucharest, ratified yesterday as a world record by the IAAF. However, Melinte bettered that with 69.58 two weeks later in the same city. The new mark is expected to be ratified in the next few weeks.
John Regis, of Belgrave, the British 200m record holder, has pulled out of tomorrow's British League Division One match at Hendon and is therefore out of contention for Britain's Europa Cup team. Linford Christie will run in both sprints for Puma Thames Valley Harriers.
