How can the tests determine it was ecstasy (pill form) when they would be looking for the pure form MDMA?

Ecstasy is generally just another word for the drug, regardless the form.

I'm sure the test came back with neither MDMA or ecstasy but with 3,4-Methylendioxy-N-methylamphetamine.

The newspaper printed it because ecstasy is better known in public than MDMA or 3,4-Methylendioxy-N-methylamphetamine
