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.

From Mr Ken Webster

Sir: Will you please allow me to commend Jonathan Aitken's determination to fight the media with the "Bright sword of truth" ("Aitken sues over `wicked lies' ", 11 April) and all the panoply of a knight of old - provided, of course, that he, like the knights of old, supplies his own armour and does not expect we taxpayers to equip him for the fray?

Yours sincerely,

KEN WEBSTER

Leeds
