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.

Boxing

Evander Holyfield says he will retire from boxing at the end of 1996, giving himself a year to try again for the world heavyweight title. Holyfield won the title in 1990 against Buster Douglas and again in 1993 by beating the holder, Riddick Bowe. One month ago he lost a non-title fight to Bowe but is preparing to return to the ring against anyone who will fight him.
