"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."
Coverage includes reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, with investigations such as the financials of Elon Musk's pro‑Trump PAC and the documentary 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations fund reporters and sustain open access without paywalls, relying on contributions from those who can afford to pay.
