The Flyover Is Now Reader-Owned—And That Changes Everything

We’re not just reporting the news—we’re rebuilding trust in it. Here are five of the top reasons why now is the time to own a piece of The Flyover.

We’ve always said: We serve our readers, not corporate bosses.

Now, we’re putting that into action.

The Flyover is now reader-owned, which means you can own a piece of what we believe is one of the most trusted news brands in America.

Here’s why that matters:

No corporate ownership.

We don’t answer to VC boardrooms or hedge funds. We answer to you—our readers.

No celebrity journalists.

You won’t find our writers chasing fame or followers. Our editors and reporters work behind the scenes, focused on facts, not likes. We’re building the Flyover brand, not personal brands.

Fact-first, not flashy.

Legacy media has lost trust. And they’ve earned it.

We’re here to replace that lost trust with clear, accurate, common-sense news for common-sense Americans.

Humility still matters.

We don’t pretend to be perfect. If we get something wrong, we own it and fix it. That’s the promise.

We aren’t about ego. We’re about building something better—together.

With a minimum investment of just $750 ($2/share) you can become a co-owner of The Flyover and help reshape American news from the ground up.

Invest in The Flyover

We believe the people who value the news should have a stake in how it’s made.

Help us build the future of news—by becoming an owner of The Flyover today.
