"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."
"The newly-appointed editor-in-chief of CBS News, Bari Weiss, reportedly has a security detail costing $10,000 a day even after the network cut 100 staffers in a brutal round of layoffs. Weiss, a former opinion writer who founded the center-right anti-woke digital outlet, The Free Press, has eight bodyguards assigned to her at all times, Page Six reported Monday. The former New York Times columnist is driven around in a caravan of SUVs, similar to the president or vice president, with the cars and security detail costing the company an eye-watering $10,000 a day, according to the report. News of the pricey security arrangement comes as the struggling network laid off 100 staffers last Wednesday, leading to the cancellation of two digital shows, the gutting of CBS News' Saturday morning offering, and the disbanding of its race and culture unit. Weiss, 41, took over CBS News in early October after its parent company, Paramount Skydance, bought her Substack newsletter The Free Press for $150 million. She came into the role with no prior TV news experience."
