"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."
"Binge-watching more than four episodes of your favourite show and spending more than three hours a day in front of the TV could be a sign of loneliness, new research suggests. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, when millions of people were locked inside their homes with little opportunity to socialise, the concept of binge-watching' has become increasingly common with little understanding of its impact on an individual's mental health."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground coverage of reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech and relies on donations to fund journalists who report without paywalls. The outlet positions itself as trusted across the political spectrum and prefers free access paid for by those who can afford it. New research links watching more than four episodes or more than three hours daily to signs of loneliness and potential mental-health consequences. Binge-watching often involves deep concentration, loss of self-awareness, distorted time perception and enjoyment, but can spiral into tolerance, mood alteration, withdrawal and negative impacts on work and relationships.
