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.

THROUGH bad luck or bad design another Formula One driver paid a heavy price. Austria's Karl Wendlinger sustained head injuries while practising for the Monaco Grand Prix and lay in a deep coma.

Allan Border bade farewell to Test cricket in strange fashion - on a golf course. He leaves holding the record for appearances (156), runs (11,174) and catches (156). He also hit 27 centuries.

Brian Lara hit his third century in three Championship innings for Warwickshire but could only manage 34 in a one-day match.

A trio of charismatic golfers won with differing degrees of relief. Seve Ballesteros won for the first time for more than two years. John Daly was victorious for the first time 'sober', as he put it. Laura Davies's success put her top of the women's rankings.
