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.

This excruciating male bonding comedy is about a group of friends who can't bear the thought that one of them is planning to abandon their booze and drug-filled bachelor life together to marry.

They sabotage his wedding and then try to bail him out when he gets into trouble pursuing his lost bride to Mexico.

The stag humour is crude and boorish and even the slapstick is very clumsily executed.
