"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."
"I bet some of those people would have preferred to go to jail for 18 months or whatever and then come out and say, No, but I paid my debt. Like, we're done.

Independent journalists cover topics from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech and political finance, prioritizing fact parsing and on-the-ground reporting. The outlet solicits donations to fund reporters and maintains open access reporting without paywalls, funded by those who can afford it. Amanda Knox criticized Matt Damon after he said on Joe Rogan's podcast that some people might have preferred a finite jail sentence rather than lifelong ostracism from cancel culture. Damon suggested some would rather go to jail and then claim to have paid their debt, and Knox, wrongfully jailed for nearly four years, reshared and rebuked him.
