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.

THE BRITISH boxer, Robin Reid, taking a lead from Adrian Dodson the previous day, made short work of his victory over his light-middleweight opponent, Marcus Thomas last night. Reid recorded a knock-out win over the Barbadian after just 58 seconds of the first round.

Earlier, Paul Ingle scored a 9-7 points' win over Ghana's Alexander Baba in the flyweight division. Ingle joined in the controversy over the new scoring system, saying that combinations of punches were too quick for the judges to register.
