Fair enough, I guess, if you also want to give more representation to far right organizations. The organizations OP mentioned are not far right. They are mainstream right. With the possible exception of RT, which I'm not actually all that familiar with.

Fox News is far right, it was founded to with the explicit purpose of putting far right view points into the main stream[0].

A) your link doesn't even mention the phrase "far right", and B) what something is today is not the same as what it was intended to be in the 70s.

You can just go to foxnews.com. It may be low-brow journalism that doesn't carry itself with the same gravity as NYT or WaPO, but none of the stuff on there seems very extreme to me. No white nationalism, for instance, which is I think is basically the right wing equivalent of the socialism (as in, actual socialism, not social democracy) and communism you see on the far left.
