TDK's Nurullah Ataç blunder: Confused with American poet

A post made on May 17 via the Turkish Language Association's official social media account included the note, "We commemorate one of the important figures of Turkish literature, critic and essayist Nurullah Ataç, with respect and mercy on the 69th anniversary of his passing."

TDK prepared a video about the author's life to commemorate Ataç, a writer of Turkish literature.

Right at the beginning of the video, instead of a photograph of Nurullah Ataç, they used a photograph of the world-famous American-British poet and playwright T.S. Eliot.

The post, made on May 17, was noticed and deleted after 10 days.
