    Erectile Dysfunction Myths That Are Just Wrong | Men’s Health
    First sentence reads,
    "There’s no shortage of information out there about erectile dysfunction, but the problem is, a lot of it is just not true."
    Information is true. She should have written there is no shortage of disinformation.
    Next paragraph ,
    "10 biggest bogus facts".
    Facts are true. 10 biggest fallacies would have been better.

    I think there is a lot of pressure for online and magazines to pump out content. A friend of mine, who writes for several online magazines, has anywhere from 5 - 25 headlines a week that she needs to submit to her editor.

    Likely it's canned copy, often written by non native speakers, badly translated and barely changed to escape Copyscape.
