[Twisted-web] Web2 Script.py seems to be broken

That won't work -- what you want is to nest the resources rather than  
subclass them. Something like this resource should do you (untested,  
wrote in email client). It says: if the path starts with media,  
return the static File and pass it the remaining pieces of the path,  
otherwise pass the entire path onto wsgi for its processing.

class toplevel(object):
   implements(IResource)

   def __init__(self):
     self.wsgi = wsgi.WSGIResource(WSGIHandler())
     self.media = static.File("./myproject/media"

   def locateChild(self, req, segs):
     if segs[0] == 'media':
       return self.media, segs[1:]
     return self.wsgi, segs

   def renderHTTP(self, req):
     return self.wsgi
