Dear Reader,

We started The Flyover because we saw a problem and wanted to fix it. 

The problem: It's hard to find news without the typical Big Media bias, and it's even harder to find it all in one place. 

The solution: An email with all of the day's stories and none of the bias. 

Here's my question, Flyover Reader: Are we solving the problem for you? If so, would you chip in a donation to help us finish June on a roll? 

Give $15
Give $50
Give $150

We're grateful for your support (even if you can't donate), and we're humbled that so many of you read our newsletter every day. Thank you!

-Cole, CEO
