The Catholic News Service changed the story from Turk to “Lycian” because they actually bothered to find out who Saint Nicholas is but they could not bring themselves to actually say that he is a Greek:

A GREEK living in Asia Minor - where Greek Hellenes HAD lived for thousands of years - and then hundreds of years after his death, merchants of Bari organized a predatory expedition to the burial place of Nicholas, stole the bones, reburied them in Bari.
