Because America was founded on the principles of freedom for the people. A right to a fair trial goes along with being free. This is part of the constitution.

Amendment VI includes the following:

"In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense."

Is the right to a fair trial for a suspect is more important than the right of the press to report on the trial?

Hi I think that the right to a fair trail for a suspect is more important than the right to report that trial. A suspect is not a proven criminal. It would be prudent to give him/her a chance to prove his/her innocence. If the right of reporting that trial is extended to the press, there are chances that the information might get colored as different press bodies might have different things to say about the trail.
