Do you really think Canon or Nikon would pull ads if the magazine said too nice of things about the competition? I don't think it works that way. For example, I see Microsoft ads all the time in Linux Magazine. And they say outright mean things about Microsoft.
In general, magazines are served much better by trying to be absolutely neutral, and most take that really seriously. If anything PopPhoto's bias seems to be in finding at least
something nice to say about everything.
