Default Why does light bend under gravity?

Ok...so I've been wondering how on earthdoesgravitybendlight, I
mean I read all about how Einstein's General Relativity describes
space-time, and when there's a mass in space-time it creates a
curve(Bowling ball on a sheet or something), and that curve isGravity, and whenlightpasses through the curve it bends....but why?


The reason is as follows:
Light is being transmitted by a structured medium occupying all of
space. This medium is distorted (curved) by the motion of mass within
it.
The paper entitled "Improved Relativity Theory and Doppler Theory of
Gravity" in my website gives a detailed description of this structured
medium called the E-Matrix.
