"Media fans" is the actual term they used in the 1970's. He's that old.
"Media fans," were...shippers, largely? At least, into character relationships, regardless of big speculative fiction concepts. And "SF fans," or whatever the term was then, were into the big concepts as opposed to character relationships.
A "media fan" watches Star Trek for the friendship between Jim, Bones, and Spock, and doesn't really care that much about the non-real-world elements.
An "SF fan" watches Star Trek for the wild concepts like different alien biologies and hypothetical alternate social organizations. Science fiction as a literature of new ideas, not just stories that could as easily be set in a boy's boarding school.
These are generalizations, and lots of fans have always been both, but the extremes have existed all along.
