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.

If the recording of 20/20 was crammed in between film commitments, you wouldn't know it.

Timbaland and Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon have created an aural aesthetic that's 1970s via 2070s: the Chi-Lites in orbit, the Isley Brothers gone intergalactic, and so on. Over a production that's aiming for Quincy Jones on Off the Wall, JT delivers standard addiction and sweetness metaphors in that trademark falsetto. It may not be as mind blowing as FutureSex…. But, frankly, what is?
