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.Nia Vardalos, star of My Big Fat Greek Wedding, here reprises her part as a Greek-American singleton in what might as well be called My Big Fat Greek Package Holiday.
Don't rush out to book. She plays a tour guide, fed up with both her stingy employers and the bunch of international stereotypes who comprise her latest group – boozy Aussies, uptight Brits, vulgar Americans. She wants to give them culture but all they want is tourist-shop tat and the Hard Rock Café. The jokes are on a similar level of sophistication – the group's coach driver is a Greek named Poopy Kakkas, the senior citizen is a kleptomaniac and the resident funny guy is Richard Dreyfuss. Aristophanes, you should be here now. Or maybe not.
