Mike Ross is all over the ADG today. The front page has a report on the sale of a Prescott, Arkansas, pharmacy in 2007 for $420,000. The online site ProPublica has published an article entitled "Mike Ross Raises Eyebrows with Healthy Haul." The story questioned whether the business was sold for more than it was worth to Stephen L. LaFrance, who operates it as a USA Drug store. Ross has received campaign donations from LaFrance, but LaFrance has supported his opponent as well. The Gazette cites people in the pharmacy industry who claim that the price was not excessive. For more see the Arkansas Times here. This link includes the text of Mike Ross' reply to ProPublica.

The ADG also carried an editorial defending Ross in the health-care debate.
