Just to expand a little further on this, it also isn't something the administration is going to want to do. When FOX lies, they are not just trying to spread the disinformation. They are also trying to goad other media and those they are lying about into responding. When there is a response to their lies it extends the life of the lies and it gives them legitimacy. When they lie and there is no response it is intentional and there really isn't anything that can be read into it other than that they are ignoring it.
