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.

I'm not saying Channing Tatum can be summed up in four YouTube videos but boy, Channing Tatum can really be summed in four YouTube videos.

The actor's email address prefix was recently revealed via the Sony hack to be the quite abstract 'PoeticalMotion', and Gawker has unearthed a YouTube account with the very same monicker.

What are the five very Tatumian videos it has liked in its five-year history?

1. A sex songs megamix

2. A Jodeci slow jam

3. A parkour highlights reel set to EDM

4. GYM CLASS

Of course, there's every chance this is a different 'PoeticalMotion', but you couldn't have picked four more apt videos for the 22 Jump Street star yourself, and on Google+ the same account is friends with Tatum's Foxcatcher co-star Marc Ruffalo.

An easy man to pin down, this follows the world's complete lack of surprise at how the actor writes emails.
