The Independent, in its critical times, always manages to delve deep into the story. Whether it’s digging into the financials of Elon Musk’s pro-Trump PAC or producing documentaries like ‘The A Word’ that sheds light on American women fighting for reproductive rights, it seems the newspaper is insinuating that others lack such intrepid journalism. Their claim of trust across the political spectrum is perhaps a veiled criticism of other news outlets’ inability to attract a diverse audience. However, their policy of not locking out readers with paywalls might only appeal to those who are willing to pay, leaving those on a tighter budget in the dark.
