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.

A gritty drama about serial killer Fred West won three television Baftas last night.

Appropriate Adult, an ITV1 show, picked up leading actor for Dominic West, leading actress for Emily Watson, and supporting actress for Monica Dolan. Another big winner was Sherlock, with a gong for supporting actor going to Andrew Scott, who played the villainous Moriarty, and the special award going to the show's co-writer Steven Moffat, who also writes Doctor Who.

Rolf Harris described his Bafta Fellowship award as "humbling". He said: "How amazing is it to discover what you love doing most can become your career."
