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 major league owners are considering plans for restructuring the National and American Leagues and the play-offs, which they intend to vote on by March. Among the options under consideration are: a) two teams from each division making the play-offs; b) three divisions in each league with the division winners and a wild-card team in each league's play-offs; c) realigning teams within each league; d) shifting teams from one league to the other; e) inter-league play involving 10-28 games each season; f) eliminating the designated hitter, expanding it to the National League or allowing its use during interleague games in AL ballparks.
