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.

Not being a huge (or even a tiny) Van Halen fan, Guitar Hero Van Halen isn’t a title that massively excites me. Unfortunately, due to a rather tired format and a slew of frankly bizarre choices of non-Halen filler tracks, the latest Guitar Hero release seems unlikely to appeal to die-hard followers of the band either. While music games can still rock, it takes more than a phoned-in performance like this to be a number one.
