, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 21, 2004

WHO:    Employees of Verizon Wireless, the nation's leading provider
        of wireless communications, which has made domestic violence
        prevention its primary philanthropic cause.

WHAT:   Photo Opp:  Employees rally in denim as a way to show their
        support for rape prevention education and opposition to
        attitudes that excuse sexual assault, in keeping with Verizon
        Wireless' commitment to domestic violence prevention and in
        support of a resolution by the legislature of the State of
        California and Verizon Wireless' new partner, the Los Angeles
        Commission on Assaults Against Women, which held the first
        "Denim Day in L.A." rally six years ago.

WHERE:  15505 Sand Canyon Ave.
        Irvine, CA  92618
        Direct special requests for photos/interviews to Ken Muche
        (contact info below).

WHEN:   Noon, Wednesday, April 21, 2004

WHY:    Denim Day rallies mark the occasion of an Italian Supreme
        Court ruling that overturned a rape conviction because the
        female victim wore jeans.  The justices reasoned that the rape
        victim must have helped her attacker remove her jeans, which
        they felt implied consent.
