Right with you to the last sentence.  Are you saying television and radio aren't politically biased, or that they take equal/fair time for both ideologies of all kinds, let alone the two largest Parties.

I might remind you that this biased newspaper, has allowed you to state your opinion on this privately owned site.     Name a radio station that doesn't screen it's callers, or a television newscast that provides a counterpoint to every broadcast.

I prefer the print media by far. Most of us don't see bias when we share the opinion.    If you state your opinion, you too are showing bias.    It doesn't mean your wrong, or right, but you have bias, (in the literal sense), to one side or the other.

I'd guess the RG staff opinions align with the majority of Eugene citizens.      It is kind of a chicken/egg question.   Does the paper really shape local opinion that much?  Of does it just reflect the majority opinion - doing otherwise would be a business risk?
