Not seeing any rates posted at all ... on any of the 5 languages offered .....perhaps because it was being talked about ?? .... IMO

You notice what they did, don't you? Did you go back to the main page? They did not correct that figure on their website...they simply took that portion down completely (the currency and weather).
If the exchange rate is higher, great! If the exchange rate is the same as it was yesterday, we drive on till something happens other wise.

Role play... 'ring ring...'
Yes, hello? This is Basnews chief editor, how can I help?
Oh hello... I'm a concerned citizen, I just noticed your news is reporting a different rate, why?
Oh... erm... where are you calling from?
USA...
Ah... well, for you... it's a mistake... we made a mistake... we'll take it down completely.
Oh, okay? Thank you, I knew it was wrong.
just a bit of fun all IMO.
PS (IMO): If this was in Turkish Lira (They would have said, right?). Also, if it was a mistake, they would have changed it, not removed it, right?
Stay blessed, F26 enlightens us further tonight.

Agree with you Callum. I don't think it was a mistake, at least not a mistake by Basnews. I suspect the error was a bit further up the line.... My reason: I bet the rate is from an automated online 'feed' and somebody opened the wrong tap
