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.It's been a hard few weeks for multi-millionaire teen pop sensation Justin Bieber. First this crazy man with a tattoo of Bieber on his leg was foiled in a kidnap plot, then his Ferrari was involved in a tragic and fatal accident, and last week Bieber was caught smoking a dubious substance and forced to apologise to fans on Twitter - some of whom took their support for him to bizarre extremes.
But in difficult times, Young Biebs can at least take comfort in the knowledge that if imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, his flatterers are mostly A-list celebs. James Franco, former Academy Awards host and star of films including 127 Hours, Milk and Pineapple Exress, has posted a video on the internet in which the 34-year-old actor imitates 18-year-old Bieber and mimes along to his hit "Boyfriend".
Other high profile Bieber imitators include comedian Jimmy Fallon and Miley Cyrus. For his own part the Biebs also does a passable, Barack Obama impression.
