Joanna – many of the newspapers got it wrong, is what happened. Here is a great article by Michele Simon that points out the many false claims and inaccuracies repeated by the editorial boards, many of which did not bother to check their facts. http://truefoodnow.org/2012/10/17/california-newspaper-editorial-boards-spread-false-claims-and-faulty-logic-on-proposition-37/. Many newspapers have endorsed prop 37 including the Examiner, North County Times, East Bay Times, San Francisco Bay Guardian and many of the weeklies.

Hi Karen, thousands of organic farmers in California are behind Prop 37, and there are few farmers in the state even growing GMO crops. Food manufacturers and distributors will not be put at unfair advantage. In fact, most other countries already require GMO labeling and these companies readily provide it — they just haven’t had to do it here. Prop 37 just requires companies to add a few words to their labels — doesn’t cost anything for consumers.
