They all retract stories, yet somehow this finishes FOX'S credibility
Fox's credibility wasn't damaged by issuing a retraction. It was damaged when they ran with this conspiracy theory in the first place.
There is huge, HUGE difference between getting a fact in a story wrong, confused or mixed up and retracting an entire story that you have spent entire segments on.
At my newsroom, we issue corrections occasionally because we got a name mixed up or a street wrong and it's mildly embarrassing. It would be an outright scandal if we had to retract an entire story because it was fake. And the reporter would be immediately fired.
