Third Monday was an annual Presidents Day fic exchange for fandoms centered around U.S. politics: Fake News RPF, Fake News FPF, Real News RPF, and Political RPF, although it also encouraged crossovers with the fictional world of The West Wing. In its final year, the crossovers-only rule for The West Wing was removed, and The Newsroom was also added as an eligible fandom.
