KNBC TV-4 Los Angeles: Prop 45 Supporters Dump BS at Blue Shield

Blue Shield policyholders joined with bedside nurses from the California Nurses Association, consumer advocates and other supporters of Proposition 45’s rate relief measure to deliver a pickup truck of steer manure to Blue Shield’s offices.

The Proposition 45 supporters said they were simply returning some of the same material that the insurance company, which has given $9.5 million of policyholder’ money to the $37.5 million insurance war chest against Prop 45, has been shoveling to Californians in its deceptive advertising against the rate regulation measure.
