Dear Flyover Reader,

Did you catch the presidential debate last night?

We don't know what will happen between now and Election Day, but we do know one thing: the media spin factories are ramping up to full production. 

I can only imagine how many articles, tweets, podcast episodes, and tv segments will be devoted to biased, activist journalism over the next few months. Are you as tired of all that as I am?

We started The Flyover because we believe that millions of Americans still want old-fashioned, fact-based reporting instead of the three-ring circus put on by most media outlets, and we plan to cover election season calmly and fairly—no clown show here. (Unless it's in our Et Cetera section, where things do tend to get wacky.) 

If you benefit from our coverage of the news, would you chip in a donation today? The Flyover is growing, but we're still a small business that depends on the direct support of our readers. 

We would really appreciate it!
