([More]() Dear Flyover Reader, 560 days! It was 560 days ago today that we launched The Flyover with the simple belief that—like us—everyday Americans are fed up with the daily barrage of biased corporate media. Some of you have been flying with us from the start, and others have boarded along the way. I am so grateful you're here. Since our launch, the mainstream media has gotten worse—with celebrity journalists pushing their agendas and favorite candidates under the guise of impartial reporting. We aren't perfect, but when we miss the mark, we own it and correct it because your trust is essential to our success. What I've learned in the last 560 days is that millions of Americans still value straightforward, fact-driven journalism—something that's hard to find among the circus of today's broadcast, cable, and print outlets. In just 560 days, nearly 1 million readers have joined us, allowing us to grow into one of the strongest, fairest news platforms in America. But let me be candid. To keep delivering free, unbiased news, I need your support. Although I appreciate our advertisers, they don't cover all our costs. Many of you have asked how you can help. The Flyover is, and will always be, 100% free. But to maintain that, I'm asking readers who are able to make a special contribution to consider doing so. September 30th is a crucial deadline for me.
