These digests indicated that Stacker.com used Gas Buddy data for their lists. The centre-rated reports highlighted Stacker.com's lists of the cheapest gas stations in specific states. KMIZ provided a full report detailing the cheapest stations in Missouri, including specific addresses and prices. Other centre-rated outlets published digests mentioning Stacker.com's compilation of gas prices in states such as Washington, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, all using Gas Buddy data. The right-rated reports mentioned Stacker.com's compilation of cheapest gas stations in Wisconsin and North Carolina, noting the use of Gas Buddy data. These were digests and did not provide specific price details for Missouri. ## What the coverage left out None of the left-rated digests mentioned the specific gas prices or locations within Missouri. The right-rated digests did not mention Missouri at all. ## Who covered it Shares of the 14 covering outlets with a published leaning rating: - Left: 50% (7) - Centre: 36% (5) - Right: 14% (2) 1 of 15 covering outlets carried no usable leaning rating and were excluded from those percentages. Coverage measured 2026-09-23T21:12:10.234Z. **Coverage watch:** developing. Checked 2 times; 2 checks found a material change. Most recently checked 2026-09-23T22:00:34.877Z. ## How the sides framed it ### Left - gonzagabulletin.com reported that Stacker.com compiled a list of the cheapest gas stations in Washington using data from Gas Buddy. Daily Post‑Athenian and Crossville Chronicle each noted a similar Stacker.com list for Tennessee, also based on Gas Buddy data. ashepostandtimes.com, The Times‑Tribune, Commonwealth Journal and Goshen News described Stacker.com lists for North Carolina, Kentucky (two outlets) and Indiana, respectively, all citing Gas Buddy. - None of the seven left‑rated digests mention Missouri, the state central to the main story, nor do they provide any price figures or cost estimates for the stations listed. Each digest limits its content to the statement that Stacker.com compiled a list for the named state using Gas Buddy data. - The digests do not include quotations, local perspectives, or additional analysis beyond the brief description of Stacker.com’s compilation. As a result, the left‑rated coverage offers only the basic fact that a third‑party list exists for each state, without elaborating on regional price trends or consumer impact. ### Centre - The centre‑rated outlets all reported that Stacker.com produced a list of the cheapest gas stations in a particular state, using data supplied by Gas Buddy. The reports indicated the source of the price information and the geographic focus for each article. - KMIZ published a full report for Missouri that listed eight stations, gave each address and the regular‑fuel price, and noted that the stations were ordered by the lowest price. The list placed Casey’s at the top with a price of $3.64. - The digests for Washington, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Mississippi named only Stacker.com and Gas Buddy as the source; they did not provide station names, addresses, price figures, or the ranking method that KMIZ included. ### Right No separate framing summary. **Provisional coverage gap:** right. The watch is not closed, so this is not yet a settled blindspot finding. ## Factuality profile of the covering outlets These are published factuality ratings of the outlets, not a verdict on whether this story or its claims are true. - high: 7 - unknown: 1 - veryHigh: 7 ## Verification scope This page compares coverage and scores the source reporting.
