The large metal top tumblers go for $34 each on Yankee Candle's website. 3 candles and is $100 worth of merchandise. That's a quick and easy way to rack up larceny charges.

Fox itself is a candidate for nottheonion these days.

Fox4News is not the same thing as the Fox News you are thinking of

Well it's called Fox and its logo is the same fox as FOX. You're quite certain there's no affiliation?
Parks1993 t1_jameras wrote
There's some form of affiliation yes but I was just pointing out this is a local news station, not the national Fox News bullshit.

Still part of the race to the bottom.

The local stations receive stories to cover from the main organization. This is part of the Fox News bullshit.

Fox affiliates don't have to push Fox News stories if they are not directly owned by Fox.
You're more likely to encounter forced programming from Sinclair than you are from Fox News.
Local stations sign affiliate contracts because they want non-news programming from the network. Local news is typically the biggest source of revenue for a station because they own all the commercial time. While the station owners will, from time to time, push a news story (looking at you Sinclair) most stations want as much editorial control as possible so they can cater to their local market and drive viewership.
So it's not impossible for a Fox News story to get pushed at the local level but it's not the status quo either.

"Get Out" was a true story. These two are secretly middle-aged white women. Next, they were going to hold up Michael's for all of their oatmeal soap base.

How hardcore a criminal do you have to be to be in the scented candle theft ring?
