We’re So Close. This Is the Moment.

We’re entering the final stretch of our campaign to reach 2,000 reader-investors, and we’re closer than ever. Eleven days ago, we set out with a simple, but ambitious goal: prove that everyday Americans—not corporations or political machines—can build a trustworthy, independent newsroom together.

Today, we’re within striking distance.

If you’ve been thinking about investing…
If you’ve been waiting for the right moment…
If you’ve wondered whether your contribution truly matters… This is that moment.

Every new investor helps strengthen something rare in American media: a reader-owned outlet committed to honesty, fairness, and fact-first reporting. Reaching 2,000 investors means more state editions, and more accountability—without compromising our independence.

We are so close to showing the country that a different kind of media company can exist—and thrive. But we can’t finish this without you.

If The Flyover has earned your trust, we hope you’ll take that final step with us.

Dolly Misses Dollywood Honor Amid Illness

Dolly Parton, 79, missed this week’s ceremony marking Dollywood’s induction into the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Hall of Fame, citing ongoing health challenges.

In a video message, Parton thanked fans and staff, noting doctors have urged her to rest following a tough fall.

She previously postponed her Las Vegas residency after the death of her husband, Carl Dean, and said she’s staying close to Vanderbilt Hospital for treatment.

Despite her absence, Parton called the honor a highlight of Dollywood’s 40th anniversary and said, “I’m not dying”—just taking it easy.
