May or may not be bent. You really have to see it in person. I've been accused on having bent forks on some of my bikes that I've posted pictures of on BF, but in real life they are fine; it's just a trick of the camera angle, especially when, like this bike, the front wheel is turned. I wasn't really recommending that bike anyway; just trying to illustrate how to tell frame size by looking at the top tube. This last bike was something that is currently on the local CL and I wasn't recommending a buy.
