If they constantly say they are using Skype it's because they are being paid to say so, not because they are actually using Skype (which they could be, of course).

They say they're using Skype because the Skype Broadcast Terms of Service require them to say it: https://www.skype.com/en/legal/broadcast/

It could also be that "Skype" has become the generic catch-all term for video chatting on desktop, since it rolls off the tongue way easier than "video call."
