To the general population "Agnostic" is what people call Agnostic Atheists and "Atheists" is what people call Strong Atheists.
When someone asks I just say I'm an Agnostic. That's because I don't feel like explaining it to them.

Again, BS semantics. Strong atheist and weak atheist are just terms. The "strong atheist" of popular conception barely exists and would be laughed off this forum for claiming certainty.

Again, we are talking about the general population that doesn't spend their time on atheist forums.
If you walk up to random people on the street 99 out of 100 would describe "Agnostic" as what an agnostic atheist is and an "Atheist" as what a strong atheist is.
Journalists write for the general population.
