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.

The growing popularity of whale watching is reflected in the latest travel brochure from the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society.

Out of the Blue, the WDCS's non-profit travel wing, has launched several new trips including Baja California, famous for its "friendly" grey whales; the Straits of Gibraltar (killer whales and pilot whales) and Punta Norte in Argentina's Peninsular Valdez, where orcas were shown grabbing seal pups from the beach in David Attenborough's TV documentary Trials of Life. Details from www.wdcs.org/outoftheblue or call 01249 449 533.
