I recall when Scala came out, somebody published[1] a 
"intro/review" on Scala where he said "Scala is Haskell on JVM"; 
poor feller didn't know none of Scala, Haskell and OCaml.

The cost of publishing something online is almost 0.  This 
invites people with little to no knowledge and experience to pour 
out superficially done "reviews" in large quantities into 
Google's brain.
There are people (easy to find on Twitter) who brag about writing 
one technical review/introduction each day; this is almost 
impossible if done correctly.

I wouldn't take any of the online reviews seriously unless with a 
huge pile of rough grained salts :-)

[1] I can't find the link.  I should be thankful I suppose.
