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.

Apple is about to hold its biggest event of the year – and will be streaming the whole thing live.

The company is gearing up to release new versions of all of its software, as well as potentially new products too. All of them will be shown off at the keynote event on 13 June.

Apple will be streaming the full event online and through its special WWDC app, it has announced.

It will also be posting videos of “all sessions through the week of the conference”, Apple noted. In some previous years, the company has kept parts of the conference secret - but has gradually got more open about what is happening at the sessions, which mostly cover how to develop for Apple’s products.

The page includes the same programming theme that has been present across all of the WWDC branding. At the top of the page, there is a message reading: print(“Watch Live”), which would instruct a computer to write a message alerting people to the fact that they can watch live.

The page also includes links to last year’s videos, which include the launch of software and services including new versions of iOS and OS X, as well as the relatively long introduction of Apple Music.

Apple's event is set to include looks at the new version of all of its operating systems, Apple Music and potentially new products like an updated MacBook Pro.
