I hope that this interview ends the speculation that the MSM is conspiring to suppress candidates that oppose "the establishment". The media doesn't cover Paul for the same reason they don't cover any of the other 2nd or 3rd tier candidates: no money, no organization and no support.

So on one hand, you admit that the media covers those candidates with big money and support (which both come primarily from the "establishment"), and on the other hand, you think this is proof that the media isn't biased against those who oppose the establishment.

Yes I do. The media isn't biased against candidates, they report on the bias. Saying the media is biased implies that it is the media's fault that Ron Paul has no shot. The media merely report on that fact.

Did you see the exchange between Hannity and Ron Paul? If that is not bias I don't know what is. Here is a station that just broadcasted a debate and then one of the leaders of the discussion goes on to blast Ron Paul for his opinion. Then the Spin doctors are interviewed and they say that the polls mean nothing (because Ron Paul was ahead) and Ron Paul is OUT of the race totally. When Ron was interviewed Hannity shouted over him the whole time, asked leading question after leading question and never once allowed the man to answer.
That is a lot of bias. Nothing neutral there. In fact, I don't see much of anything neutral anymore in the news anymore. Just a lot of spots about where to get the best makeover in town and what coffee to drink.
