Fox News Editor Overseeing Crime Fearmongering Is Felon Himself

For years, Fox News has pushed the narrative that the United States is undergoing a cataclysmic crime wave driven by drugs and young punks with guns who rob unsuspecting small businesses and get off easy because of soft-hearted judges.

Fox News might as well be talking about its own managing editor.

Tom Lowell, a longtime Fox News Channel producer who now runs the law-and-order-obsessed newsroom, took part in a 1986 liquor store burglary in South Florida that ended in a drug bust. And he got a slap on the wrist, despite cops saying the “burglary was extensive.”

Documents recently obtained by The Daily Beast shed light on what exactly Lowell, now 62, did years before society gave him a second chance, allowing him to launch a successful TV journalism career.

The great crime wave story may have also been a bit of GOP campaign fallacy to scare you into voting for a "red wave"...

It didn't work

Shrinkage reporting by the major retailers was pretty much in line with previous periods...there was no "spike"

Funny, how they didn't get the story right until AFTER the election but FOX made sure you knew about every Walgreens theft in America,...especially in the ones in that radical liberal stronghold of San Francisco

Walgreens executive says ‘maybe we cried too much last year’ about theft​

PUBLISHED THU, JAN 5 2023 11:07 AM EST UPDATED THU, JAN 5 20236:12 PM EST

• Walgreens acknowledged it may have overblown concerns about thefts in their stores after shrinkage stabilized over the past year.
• “Maybe we cried too much last year,” Chief Financial Officer James Kehoe said.
• The company made investments into private security guards, but they’ve proven “largely ineffective,” Kehoe said.

A top Walgreens executive on Thursday acknowledged the company may have overblown concerns about thefts in their stores after shrinkage stabilized over the last year.

During an earnings call, the company’s chief financial officer, James Kehoe, said shrinkage was about 3.5% of sales last year but that number is now closer to the “mid twos.” He also said the company would consider moving away from hiring private security guards.

“Maybe we cried too much last year,” Kehoe said. “We’re stabilized,” he added, saying the company is “quite happy with where we are.”

Shrinkage is the difference between a company’s recorded inventory on their balance sheet and its actual inventory. It primarily accounts for items that were shoplifted but also includes inventory that was damaged, lost or stolen by employees.
