Re: Boycott Vodafone, SuperPages, Yellow Pages, t While I have no desire to defend Verizon, your statement that Vodafone is a parent company to Verizon is incorrect. It is a joint investor and minority owner of Verizon Wireless. Verizon Communications owns 55 percent of Verizon Wireless while Vodafone owns 45 percent.

What is the difference between being one of 2 companies owning a third company, with 45% of the stock, and being "a parent company"? |

 | A parent company would have ownership of the stated company. Think GM and Pontiac, where GM is the parent. |
