Indiana news we're not likely to hearing in Indiana

Got to get this from New Zealand:

Eli Lilly is having trouble obtaining and retaining insurance coverage for Zyprexa litigation because apparently insurance companies are no longer willing to buy its wide eyed innocence routine when it comes to the company's fraudulent off-label marketing schemes.
The rest is here. I am beginning to wonder about Lilly's business practices. I am also beginning to wonder if our Governor did not learn some business skills while working for Lilly:
In filings with the SEC, Lilly admits that it is having problems and that the company may end up having to pay its own Zyprexa costs, but blames it on the insurance industry stating: "We have experienced difficulties in obtaining product liability insurance due to a very restrictive insurance market and therefore will be largely self-insured for future product liability losses."
I added the italics. When I saw that I thought - how Mitch-like, to blame someone else.
