I just noticed that. Reuters does not use terrorist as a description, right?

No. I read so much news that I have to work very hard to not allow their choice of language to infect mine. I'm sticking to using "terrorist" and "mass-murderer" in my language. To refer to the perpetrators of the September 11 attacks I use the term "terrorist hijackers"-- "hijackers" alone doesn't seem to me to convey the whole truth. Of course, CNN is still referring to them as "suspected hijackers." I keep wondering, when is CNN going to stop "suspecting" them and be sure?
