The articles were biased but they were not biased against Ford or the Mustang only against the car they felt handled worse subjectively. I have already said that, and I find it hilarious that I already said I would not even drive the Camaro.
They picked the Focus over the Cruze simply because of its handling feel even though the Cruze was a better economy car.
These are not muscle cars, and they all handle amazingly well which is why the GT500 has gotten such great reviews. No one writes articles based on random people on a forum that do not appreciate handling. They judge cars subjectively based on their own preferences, and in these two tests the preferences were handling over straight line performance.
The bottom line is that many of the GT500's are currently sold with the SVT Performance Package which Ford offers for handling. If you only care about straight line performance than the GT500 is the wrong car for you.
