It is nothing related to what you said exaggerate or distort the original news, there is report from VNA, simply additional explanation for the term SCS (...). for the different name called for same sea region in south east Asia.
I quote here below from wiki:
In China, it is called the "South Sea", 南海 Nánhǎi, and in Vietnam the "East Sea", Biển Đông.....
following an escalation of the Spratly Islands dispute in 2011, various Philippine government agencies started using the name "West Philippine Sea". A PAGASA spokesperson said that the sea to the east of the Philippines will continue to be called thePhilippine Sea.[13]...
South China Sea

This report from June 23, 2016 , after award of PCA ruling for SCS in 12 June, 2016. I think this news is not so old.

I don't care how you call this sea. You can even call it Kecho's Sea, if you like. In fact, the name alone cannot decide anything. Just like there is a very large part land in Japan is called as "中国", but we will never think this part of Japan belongs to us, simply because of the name is 中国。
The key question is, in the original Reuters article, it mentions nothing about what you, or the Vietnam media, added. I respect your people's right to call South China Sea with the name that you like. But the only proper way is like "...... South China Sea (Editor's Note: In Vietnam, we call it xxx Sea)" .
The childish & disgusting trick you, or the Vietnam media play is obviously trying to mislead the readers to think that the famous western media is calling South China Sea with another name. Although Reuters has NO intention about this at all. Such funny trick has no real impact but to humiliate your country.
