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 Juventus coach, Antonio Conte, already serving a ban for match-fixing with a previous club, faces more time out for criticising Italy's sports justice system.

Conte will face a disciplinary commission for comments after his 10-month ban was upheld on appeal in August. Conte said then he was being made a scapegoat and that there was a judge who had something personal against him. His current ban ends on 8 December, after it was reduced last week.
