I had a long look at the article (and the other Ruby and Python  
material around it), and I must say that I don't see the bias. Quite  
the reverse, I get the impression that whoever wrote this went out of  
his/her way to offset every nice remark about one of the languages by  
an equally nice remark about the other one. Which bits are you  
finding biased?

I've also cc'd Ronald Oussoren, who is probably the best bridge  
between the Python community and Apple (being the person who did all  
the work:-), and I'd also like to know whether he sees any bias here,
