Gay Muslim influencer hosts Ramadan dinner promoting acceptance, in photos

BERLIN (AP) — A gay Muslim influencer in Berlin hosted an inclusive Ramadan dinner, gathering friends who are Muslim and Christian, queer and straight, German and immigrant, to promote acceptance across faiths and identities.

No one can be “too queer” to belong, said Ali Darwich, a 33-year-old German with Palestinian and Lebanese roots who posts as @alifragt on Instagram and TikTok.

US-Belgium at World Cup is most-watched soccer telecast in US history at 30M viewers, Fox says

The U.S. game against Belgium in the round of 16 at the World Cup set another record as the most-watched soccer telecast in U.S. history, Fox said after preliminary ratings came out Tuesday. Fox said 30 million people watched the game, a 4-1 victory for Belgium on Monday in Seattle to move into the quarterfinals and eliminate the last of the tournament’s three co-hosts. Fox said audience peaked at more than 36.8 million people between 9:15 and 9:30 p.m. Eastern Time. That topped the previous mark, the U.S.-Bosnia-Herzegovina game last week that Fox said was watched by 26.4 million. Fox on Tuesday also reported the 11.1 million viewers who tuned in to the Portugal-Croatia match in the round of 32 were the most in English language history in the United States for any World Cup game without the U.S. team, excluding the final. Fox said viewership peaked at more than 16 million for a wild finish.
