RE: Merck published fake journal

Are all these "fake" journals?  I just want to be sure what we 
are talking about.  Is any of the content of the articles false 
or fake?  That would be pretty amazing.  Not disclosing a sponsor 
is not good either, of course, and if it's six instances of this 
and not just one, it can't be the work of one rogue staff member. 
Six instances, if true, is a deliberate corporate decision.

Surely this warrants closer scrutiny.
