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.AS TEACHERS, may we register our bewilderment at the Independent on Sunday's collusion with the agencies in their sick portrayal of anorexic models as the height of fashion ('On the eve', Review, 22 May).
It is generally known that some supermodels are having to starve themselves to hold down their jobs. It may not be equally well-known that many schoolgirls have convinced themselves that they must imitate them.
Do we have to offer them such abused role models?
