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.A newspaper has been criticised for referring to the Academy Award-winning actress Rachel Weisz as ‘Mrs James Bond’ in a teaser for its Culture section.
The accomplished actress has been nominated for 27 awards throughout her career, winning 16, including a Golden Globe for her performance in The Constant Gardner.
But this didn’t stop The Sunday Times from describing her as ‘Mrs James Bond’, an allusion to her husband Daniel Craig, who has never won or been nominated for an Oscar.
Weisz is currently promoting her new film The Lobster, a science fiction tale from the Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos. She is also collaborating with producers on six projects, telling The Times: “I’m not a writer, but I can develop. I can look at scripts and I can produce them creatively.“
