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.

DANNY MORRISON became the first New Zealand bowler to take a hat- trick in a one-day international as his country beat India by 28 runs in the first of a four-match limited overs series in Napier yesterday. Morrison dismissed Kapil Dev, Salil Ankola and Nayan Mongia, all clean bowled, as the Indians could only manage 212 for 9 in their 50 overs in reply to New Zealand's 240 for 5.
