Broadcast by CNN,, August 14, 2010 at 6:20 a.m. EDT.

Even after the submerged oil surfaced, BP and the Coast Guard deny finding any visible oil on the seafloor. See:

New emphasis on testing for "submerged oil" in MS Sound, WLOX BIloxi, August 12, 2010 http://www.wlox.com/Global/story.asp?S=12972236 :

"[T]hey're going to be looking for possible sub-surface oil. We don't know if it's out there, but we will be looking to identify those substances that are of question," said the Coast Guard's Kristen Jaekel. ...

"What you may have heard spoken of as plumes of oil is parts per million levels of oil, one or two parts per million, more than 100 miles from here. And actually what was measured while the well was flowing, was lower than background levels today," said [BP spokeswoman Maureen] Johnson.

The University of Florida researchers stated (per FOX News), that when they told NOAA about the oil plumes, the government/NOAA told them they were wrong. Phillipe Cousteau also restated he saw miles wide undersea oil. Facts/truth will eventually collide with propaganda/spin.

The Feds never cease to amaze and astound.
