Must be Kansas because it’s the Kansas city star.
Kansas City, Mo. is about 4 times the population of K.C., Kansas and the Kansas City Star is located in Missouri.
The home office of the Kansas City Star is in Kansas City, Missouri; but the only thing separating it from Kansas City, Kansas is a river, but both cities go right up to the river’s edge as if one city - though, the Kansas City, Missouri side always seemmed the less prospoerous side to me.
