Question is..when are we going to see this kind of reckoning and self-analysis at Fox News?

It's a bit of a different category in that NPR is public funded and so has kind of an obligation to represent the public. Fox is owned by the Murdochs and so it's a bit down to them. At least they fired Tucker.

Yeah, or the Wash Post or NYT or MSNBC. As for Fox, listen to the Howard Kurtz show on Sunday mornings, he provides a nice, dare I say "fair and balanced", analysis of media coverage of news stories from the previous week.

Self-awareness - let alone analysis! - is not a part of their or their viewership’s culture. May as well ask when Donald Trump will next reflect on an emotional state not his own.
