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.

Bolton Wanderers have completed the signings of defenders Zat Knight and Sam Ricketts, the Premier League club said on their website (www.bwfc.co.uk) today.

The pair have signed three-year deals for undisclosed fees, with centre back Knight, 29, joining from Aston Villa and 27-year-old full back Ricketts moving from Hull City.

Ex-Fulham player Knight has earned two England caps, against the United States and Colombia in 2005, while former Swansea City player Ricketts has notched 34 caps for Wales.
