FactCheck.org, a Project of Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania, has published an analysis of the ads being presented by the Yes on 78/No on 79 campaign...
In their summary it states:
Californians are being barraged with TV ads, financed mostly by the pharmaceutical industry, opposing a ballot measure that would force manufacturers to grant discounts or lose their lucrative state Medicaid business. The companies support a voluntary plan covering fewer persons.
The industry's ads contain half-truths and misleading statements. For one thing, they say the plan they oppose would require Californians to get approval of "bureaucrats in Sacramento" to get prescriptions filled, which is false for the large majority who see the ads.
