"The turnover"

It appears that announcers this year have been told to call any violation a turnover. "It's Smith with the turnover." "Ref calls it a turnover" (!!) "Duke knocked it away, but not before the turnover" These were travel calls, double dribbles, bouncing ball on a line. Even a couple of oob calls have been dubbed "turnovers". I haven't heard the word "travel" once, nor violation. Anyone else notice this?
