Well, any form of “hot” fusion can be referred to as dense plasma fusion, and the article explicitly excludes “cold fusion” so that may have been what the author was after.
And remember:
“There is only one thing worse than being talked about and that is [em]not[/em] being talked about. – Oscar Wilde”
Or its modern descendant [em]”Any publicity is good publicity.”[/em]
With that in mind I’d worry more about the sudden excursion into a pro-fission PR piece in the middle of an article about fusion than I would worry about the phrase “dense plasma fusion.”
