No proof.

But if throughout this campaign he is being shunned, I strongly believe he’d bring it up. He’s a fighter, and I can’t see him being silent on this issue with all his candor and outspokenness on all the other issues about the campaign.

But I am assuming this. We all debated it over the past few months on this thread, and came to the same general consensus.

I was keeping and posting a spreadsheet of the GOP appearances over the past several months, but haven’t updated recently.

We see that the press DOES have guests on a “rolodex” of sorts that they like to appear continuously. A lot of that is because those guests are going to say something the Left wants to hear, or are easily played, like McCain, Graham, and Kasich. But if a candidate wanted to appear and told them, and they refused, that would be a whole other story. Hopefully worth telling by someone.

Do you have any insight or knowledge about it?

My theory is that the media despise Cruz and they do not in any way want to help him. As someone mentioned, any publicity is good and with Ted Cruz’s ability to totally wipe them out they do not want to give him a chance.

My evidence for this is your spreadsheet. IIRC, many candidates who have dropped out have had more appearances than Cruz, who won Iowa and is running second in most national polls.

As to why he does not complain, my theory is that he does want to come out looking like a whiner.
