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.

Knock-out competitions rarely produce giantkillings in basketball, but Newcastle Eagles' coach Tony Garbelotto will warn his players against complacency when they travel to the Conference side Teesside Mohawks in the first round of the ntl National Cup tomorrow.

Garbelotto said: "Teesside are an extremely competitive team, one of two or three teams in the Conference that can actually compete with BBL teams." However, the two other Conference sides in the National Cup have already been comprehensively beaten. Worthing Thunder lost 126-89 to Leicester Riders, while Plymouth Raiders were beaten 101-75 by Birmingham Bullets.
