Webcams now included in sexting defintion

At least that's the case according to this sexting article by the examiner.  According to the article, which states that nearly 30% of 14-24 years olds surveyed have been involved with some type of “sexting" the definition of said act is as follows:

"texting with sexual references or words, sharing nude photos or videos, or participating in sexual acts via a webcam."

Why is it that reporters always feel they  have to add extra acts to a definition in order to make surveys look better.  I'm further conserned that the survey includes both under age and legally concenting adults.  How about we break this down a little further before spreading these numbers to worried parents on the internet?
