Your weekly message is distributed in the following ways:

  • A rotating text / display ad on the Flyer
  • A large, in-line, mobile story banner ad
  • Inclusion in our weekly sponsors post

Flyer sponsors also receive a listing on our Sponsors page, plus recognition in the header and footer of the Flyer.

Policy

Currently, Fayetteville Flyer accepts ads for businesses and political candidates/groups.

Advertisements that appear on Fayetteville Flyer and any other Wonderstate Media sites are paid advertisements. The businesses or candidates being advertised come with no endorsement from Fayetteville Flyer, implied or otherwise.

While we reserve the right to reject ads on the basis of taste and appropriateness, we neither accept nor reject ads on the basis of political content.

We think this policy is important in helping to preserve the editorial integrity of the news and information we present here on the Fayetteville Flyer. Because we’re in the news and opinion business, ads tied to businesses or candidates can be challenging. If we reject an ad that we disagree with, every ad we accept could be seen as an endorsement.


Election advertising policy

Fayetteville Flyer reserves the right to refuse political ads from anyone or any group for any reason.

Fayetteville Flyer reserves the right to include the words “Paid Political Ad” preceding any political ad.

All political advertising must be paid for in advance.

All ads must list who is paying for the advertisement in a minimum 10 point type at the bottom of the ad. If the ad is not paid for by one specific individual, then the ad must list the official campaign group/committee paying for the ad.

Political ads must not reference any opponent (no attack ads).

For all ads soliciting political donations for a particular candidate which link to an external site, the landing page must clearly state that the donations are non-tax deductible.

Political ads include restrictions on both availability and headline usage. Flyer Sponsor packages are not available for political candidates/groups. Paid Posts for election candidates/groups will not be posted to social media.

Headlines for political election ads include strict guidelines, and may be be written by Fayetteville Flyer staff before publishing. Wording will make clear what is specifically being asked of voters, and will be written as such: “Vote for (candidate name/ballot question)” or “Vote against (ballot question).” Fayetteville Flyer will also include the words “Paid Political Ad” preceding any paid political election ad headline.

Separate rates may apply to political and election ads. Contact Dustin at 479-387-1002 or send us an email for specific details.
