Letter: Woody's woes
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.From Mr DAVID GIBBS
Sir: I cannot fathom editorial values that promote to the top of the front page a story of American marital strife of no consequence except to the people involved ('Woody Allen denies abusing adopted child', 19 August), while obdurately refusing to cover anything to do with the troubles of the Royal Family who, like it or not, are of some consequence to our culture, constitution and sense of national identity. Thank goodness the end of August is in sight.
Yours faithfully,
