1/4 of "yes", for this particular article. The regular "brands X, Y and Z are better" part would get more traction in the C-suites. And hopefully on Wall Street.

Speaking (unofficially) as someone who works at one of the "other brands" that reeks of journalists having a bias.

		If a magazine for parents of severe-peanut-allergy children ended every "may contain undisclosed peanut" recall article with a "Here's our current top 3 brands for child peanut safety: ...", would anyone refer to that as reeking of journalistic bias? How 'bout if Consumer Reports published a "We Tested 17 kitchen garbage disposals" article, and their 1-paragraph summary of the worst-rated model said "buy one of our 3 top-rated models instead"? (Yes, I know you're giving a "proper" response. And that very few journalists might say "buy X, Y, or Z instead" about a 900 lbs. gorilla like Cisco. Recall my "Daydream" disclaimer.)
