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 Rod Emberton

Sir: No wonder Microsoft is taking over the world. They managed to take over 20 pages in your independent publication without there being any mention of their main rival operating system, Macintosh System 7.

System 7 has been available since 1991. One of the reasons we use it in my architects' practice is because it provides multi-tasking, which means we can carry on working while the computer is printing. PC users visiting us are quite intrigued and surprised that our little old Apple Mac has been doing this for so long with such little financial outlay necessary.

Yours faithfully,

Rod Emberton

Lampeter,
