The way Google Translate works, which is actually explained pretty nicely by Google statement quoted in this article, makes this a non-story in my opinion. Whether by an intentional attack (somehow flooding the Google corpus [the whole indexed web in a given language?] with biased texts) or a statistical mishap, this is ultimately fairly uninteresting when you realize that: no, no one at Google "snuck" this in there.
In the attack scenario, if there were details as to how someone pulled off a Google-bomb style attack, that would be kind of fun and interesting. Otherwise, there's not much to say.
