LETTER: Dyke was right

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.

Sir: Lord Young misses why Greg Dyke, together with many other people who have thought about the issues, is still angry about the outcome of Hutton. In essence Mr Gilligan had a true story and it was worth defending strongly in the face of abuse from No 10. For Greg Dyke to resign because he reports to the Governors and for Tony Blair not to because he appears to report to no one is, in the face of their relative culpability, a gross injustice.
