Comment:

 It looks like https://www.foxnews.com/ uses a content delivery network,
 and they block Tor exits. Perhaps they don't know, or they don't care
 about their users' anonymity.

 It looks like https://www.cnn.com/ doesn't block Tor exits. Maybe they've
 though about their users' anonymity, or maybe they also don't care, and
 just happened to choose a different content delivery network.

 We regularly publish blog posts about different kinds of censorship, like
 this one about Internet provider censorship:

 But there's not much we can do to help, sorry!
