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.

George R. R. Martin had the audacity to visit Comic Con instead of finishing Winds of Winter this week (at least in the opinion of this jerk reporter), where he was spotted posing for a photo in a Daenarys Targaryen face-in-hole.

GRRM didn't get behind the board after encouragement from chanting fans like you might expect but in fact elected to channel his inner Daenarys, getting his publicist to take a quick picture of him for his wife.

A fan managed to quickly take a photo for Reddit however, writing alongside the image: "Ran into George R. R. Martin at comic-con… he really gets into his characters."

Martin proved a better sport in terms of interacting with Game of Thrones scenery than The Queen at any rate, who visited the Iron Throne during a trip to Ireland earlier this year but didn't actually sit on it.
