Source inventory by state

Updated Tue, 04 Aug 2026 19:32:33 GMT. This page shows how many active news sources we monitor per state, not per ZIP. A state meeting the threshold does not mean every ZIP in that state has local coverage — only that the state's source pool is that size. Per-ZIP coverage depends on whether certified local sources exist and produce content for that specific area.
