Here (http://rt.com/business/bitcoin-russia-use-ban-942/) (today's article), RT  (this is in fact a Reuters news)

How is this Reuters news? The (silly) physical bitcoin photo is attributed to "Reuters / Jim Urquhart" (http://straylighteffect.com/category/about-jim-urquhart/), but the article is RT. There is no mentioning of a bitcoin "ban" in Russia on reuters.com. Just this piece of fine journalism that claims bitcoin is "banned" in Indonesia: http://uk.reuters.com/article/2014/02/06/uk-indonesia-bitcoin-idUKBREA150HV20140206 Wink

I'd say some people at RT (and everywhere else) made a few bitcoin through other people's panic sales today. :-P
