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.

“I know too much about life to have any optimism,” is a typically bleak quip from struggling stand-up Louis CK, describing new relationships.

“I’ve seen my best years,” adds the 45-year-old, recent divorcé who is raising two daughters in the midst of a midlife crisis. The portly New Yorker visits a perverse shrink, but mostly he has a series of disastrous dates – one woman flees from him in a helicopter – and struggles for happiness and serenity. Refreshingly honest and consistently funny.
