At LEAST two news stories were published before this article that have identified this as algae. And that's not yet mentioning that the test results identifying it as such were released on the 16th, 3 full days before this ecoworldly piece. My question is, is this purposeful deception or just laziness... I guessing the latter. Ok seriously. At LEAST two news stories were published before this article that have identified this as algae.

The gooeyness could just be contaminents in the water which have clung to the algae. Currents in the ocean often cause debris and other floaty stuff to clump together.
