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.

IN BRIEF

THE BOARD of More Group, the outdoor advertising outfit, is expected to meet this morning to decide whether or not to recommend an indicative offer for the business from Decaux, its French rival. More's directors yesterday met Decaux executives and advisers to discuss the merits of the offer, but no decision was made. Decaux, whose bid has been referred to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission, has indicated it will offer 1220p per More share if it is given the green light. Clear Channel, the US media giant, has offered 1,110p per share.
