Disney apparently wasn't hacked, but the users were. Password guessed/stolen = account hacked in common parlance.

In common parlance, yes. However, I would argue it doesn’t mean that on hacker news.

The BBC doesn't write for Hacker News. And I would argue that just about everyone here understands what "hacked" means in this context anyway.
