I can think of two reasons, one they want to bury it a bit, so there's no accidents that might backfire, particular when comparing it to the Republican cluster****. And two, the Democratic establishment might not like Bernie Sanders appeal, and doesn't want to give him too much of a platform vs. Clinton.

Sounds completely unfair to Bernie and unfair to Americans who deserve to see how Hilary acts with tough questions.
It's pretty well known that DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a pretty major Hillary supporter, so most people think that she is intentionally marginalizing the debates because they don't help Hillary, since Hillary is the front runner and the presumed nominee. Debates help those trailing, usually. The less people watching the debates the more likely it is that Hillary will maintain her lead.
It's a problem and it's really shady, which is why a lot of people have petitioned for Schultz's removal as DNC chairwoman, because she barely if at all hides her bias.

We already know how she acts with tough questions: she says whatever she thinks the person asking(or the audience) wants to hear. She is the living embodiment of the whole concept of women asking their husbands if they are fat and the husbands answering "no" regardless of whatever the actual truth might be. Which is a super sweet thing to do for a spouse, but for the country? Yeah, not so much.

Who said it was a woman thing? I simply used the "wife asks husband if she is fat" thing as an example.
We could switch it to "Guy asks wife if he is the best she has ever had in bed" if it makes you feel better about the genders.

You should have noticed by now that I'm the last person to believe in conspiracies. It's not in my nature, not because I trust people, but because I don't think people are as deliberate and calculating as some give them credit for.

They are hiding the debate and screwing Bernie over, this is a form of conspiracy against him and the american people.

I'm not convinced Bernie could dramatically shift things with a great debate performance anyway, even if the debate got Superbowl level ratings.
