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.

There are great foreign correspondents . . . and then there is Robert Fisk. For decades, The Independent's man in Beirut has been unrivalled as a witness to the world's troubled places. Lebanon, Israel, Iraq, Algeria, Northern Ireland, former Yugoslavia - he has reported from them all in their darkest hours, fearlessly seeking out the truth and recording it with an honesty, passion and integrity that have won him a global following.

Combining the vividness of fiction with a forensic rigour and a profound - and sometimes prophetic - historical wisdom, his dispatches constitute an unforgettable portrait of a dangerous and tragic age.

Starts Saturday 10 May
