The newspaper distributes around 80,000 copies currently in Seattle and surrounding area, the paper earns about $500,000 a year. <i>The Facts</i> started with a 5,000 newspapers in circulation. The Newspaper is published every Wednesday. The Puget Sound region's black newspapers are bucking a national trend of fast-slipping circulation. "The Facts" founder Fitz Redd Beaver originally started the paper because he was looking for a source of income after losing his previous job. The main emphasis of "The Facts" is to primarily develop a perspective that can be interpreted by a mass audience. Fitz Redd Beaver examined the possibility of making a difference in his particular community to identify how data and information can be delivered. This viewpoint allowed an audience to develop an inherent eye on how information in the North West, specifically Seattle could be identified. The goal of <i>The Facts</i> was to pick up stories that are oriented towards the African-American population in Seattle. <i>The Facts</i> also hired many black journalists who later left the paper to create other newspapers such as <i>The Medium</i>, <i>The Skanner</i> and more in and around the northwest region.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Competition">Competition</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Facts_(Seattle)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Competition"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>There are currently three African-American oriented newspapers in the Seattle area: <i><a href="/wiki/The_Seattle_Medium" class="mw-redirect" title="The Seattle Medium">The Seattle Medium</a></i>, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Skanner" title="The Skanner">The Skanner</a></i>, and <i>The Facts</i>. There is much debate if the African-American population in Seattle is large enough to support three newspapers.

Beaver graduated from high school in his home town of Martinsville, Virginia. He then went on to enroll and attend at North Carolina A&T College, but dropped out before graduating. Fitz had several jobs before coming to the Northwest including: a civilian employee for the U.S. Army, a railroad porter, and working at a radio station.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_5-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> His career at the radio station sparked his passion, spending the rest of his life in public relations and journalism.
