Vodafone Clears Air on Blog site Comments | The Jet - Fiji's First Dedicated Community Newspaper

Croz Walsh's blog posting highlighted the race baiting and concocted story that was published on C4.5 blog.

The Jet, an online community newspaper, published a response from Vodafone Board Chair, Lionel Yee, whose statement cleared any lingering doubts to the story and further eroded any remaining credibility that the blog C4.5 and its affiliates had.

The excerpt of Jet Newspaper online article:
