“When I use a word,” the Environmentalist said in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.”

“Am I missing something?”

Yes...the press using ignorant terms to promote their agenda, in summary headlines.

They are well aware that 95% of folks will read and believe the headline, without ever reading the underlying text.
The mere presence of the volume of underlying text, is sufficient to con most observers into believing it must support the headline summary.
