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.

Telecoms ruling

The European Commission is to rule on the proposed joint venture between France Telecom and Deutsche Telekom within 10 days, a Competitition Directorate spokesman said last night. The two companies, which want jointly to provide data transmission services for businesses under the trade name Atlas, made concessions to the Commission late last week to head off objections that the joint venture was anti-competitive. The concessions appear to include an offer to exclude a France Telecom subsidiary, Info AG, from the joint venutre.
