Sally Floyd is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Generation M #1 (Jan. 2006) and was created by writer Paul Jenkins and artist Ramon Bachs.

Sally Floyd is a journalist that investigated the aftermath of the events of M-Day, the day on which millions of mutants lost their mutant abilities.

Floyd's daughter, Minnie, had died several months earlier due to a mutation that caused her to grow younger and younger from the age 2. In the wake of this tragedy, Floyd developed alcoholism.

Taking over from Jessica Jones, Floyd investigated several M-Day cases, writing about well-known mutants who had lost their powers and producing a series of article profiles.

She worked with former X-Man Jubilee, a depowered mutant, and her investigation led her to Warren Worthington (Archangel), who pretended to be depowered and with whom she may have had a previous relationship. Archangel used Floyd as a pawn to catch a serial killer known as Ghoul who was targeting mutants for death. Afterward, Floyd entered rehab and began a friendship with reporter Ben Urich of the Daily Bugle.

Floyd's next appearance was in Civil War: Front Line. By the end, she and Urich had resigned from their respective newspapers and formed the online newspaper Frontlines.com; they later form the print newspaper Front Line. The two were split over the controversial Superhuman Registration Act, with Floyd initially opposed, but later becoming a supporter. Later, during World War Hulk: Front Line, Floyd started drinking again following the emotional trauma she incurred by being caught in the middle of Hulk's attack on Manhattan.
