Here were the options given the respondents:

1) Human beings have developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life, but God guided this process
2) Human beings have developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life, but God had no part in this process
3) God created human beings pretty much in their present form at one time within the last 10,000 years or so

If the bias in the headline bothers you so much, try to remember that the essay at the link is clearly an opinion piece, in which the writer expresses his opinion about the results of the poll. It's the normal thing for opinion pieces to be biased.
