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.DIDIER AURIOL, the leader in the Argentine rally, and the former world champion, Carlos Sainz, had their cars attacked by spectators with rocks and flaming sticks. They were angry at the cancellation of the last stage of the second leg of the race. The violence flared after organisers of the 1,890-kilometre rally in Tucuman, Argentina, decided to cut the 592km second leg short because fog had reduced visibility over the ice and mud-covered course.
