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.THE Lennox Lewis-Razor Ruddock world heavyweight title eliminator on 31 October has been finally cleared to take place at the main Earl's Court arena in London. Kensington and Chelsea council officials were initially concerned about 'noise pollution' because the televised fight does not start until 12.50am, which will result in thousands of people flooding local streets in the early hours of a Sunday morning. But a transport system, guaranteed by the promoters, Champion Enterprises, to provide a coach service to car parks has prompted the local council to issue a licence for the show.
THE Mexican featherweight, Manuel Medina, retained his IBF world crown on Wednesday night when the Italian challenger, Fabrizio Cappai, failed to answer the bell for the 11th round of their title fight Capo D'Orlando, Sicily.
