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.SHEFFIELD UNITED have decided against signing the Millwall centre-back, Alan McLeary, who has been on loan at Bramall Lane this season.
BRIGHTON are keen to appoint David Webb, the former Southend United manager, as their new team manager - but only when they can afford to employ him. They are at least pounds 2m in debt, and their managing-director, Barry Lloyd, said: 'When the finances are right, and developments concerning the ground are underway, then it could happen. But as our finances stand, it's not a job I would offer my worst enemy.'
