Twitter has slapped Joe Biden’s tweet about the common price of gas with an "added context" feature so that users are provided more information of the difference between the common and average prices of gas.
“Right now, the most common price at gas stations across the country is $3.19 per gallon. That's progress,” the president tweeted.
The common price refers to the number most people are seeing at the pump across the country, as opposed to the average price which is higher on $3.80 a gallon.
Twitter added a “context” feature to Joe Biden’s tweet so users weren’t misled on why the price is lower than the average.
