What does this mean?  We have no idea who wrote the NT, and we know they were written decades later than the events they relate.  What does 'being a forgery' mean in this context?

Half of New Testament forged, Bible scholar says

I suspect Ehrman is being generous.  Most likely it is all forged.

I mean, I get that they're full of shit, but what does it mean to be a 'forgery' if we already know the authors are unknown? Does it simply mean that the NT was not literally written by 4 guys named Matthew Mark Luke and John? Because I thought everyone knew that.
