Why does Fox news hold other news organizations to way higher standards than it holds itself?

Update:

I consider it completely self evident that Fox cherry picks and takes things out of context to support a political agenda. Their primary objective is to persuade, not to enlighten.

Update 2:

If you want examples, just turn it on. If you don't see any, you are completely brainwashed.

    Fox Noise is 'infotainment' not news. They cater their agenda to the ignorant, gullible, and fearful. Their noxious gasbag pundits create scenarios and twist facts to fit their own doomsday predictions, and then the 'news' division reports this stuff as fact. Gretchen Carlson, an Oxford University graduate, can't even google 'ignoramus' and get the correct answer. Talk about the dumbing down of America!

    There is no honor among thieves or media whores - especially if a buck is to be made.

    Because the others are actually "NEWS" organizations. Fox is not, any more than Miss Universe has contestants form the rest of the universe.

    I consider it self-evident that all news agencies have an agenda. If you don't see any, you are completely brainwashed.

    whatever they're doing its working. maybe you and MSNBC could spend less time b*tching about Fox News and do something constructive. Then they might get a viewer or two.
