Fox and WSJ are mainstream news organizations. They're not Breitbart or InfoWars
Only in a parallel universe can FOX NEWS be considered a mainstream organization. It has been an auxiliary of the GOP since its founding:

These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy

and the Wall Street Journal has always leaned right:

These media sources are slightly to moderately conservative in bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes) to favor conservative causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information, but may require further investigation. See all Right-Center sources.

Why even bring up infowars and breitbart ? They aren't even legitimate news organizations.
