Uh, I hate to tell you, Philips owns Maganavox. Sylvania too.
Rather, Magnavox and Sylvania, is part of NAP- North American
Philips. A few years ago, they were once owned by GTE, but Philips
bought them.
On a side note, Zenith is the only American (practically) consumer
electronics company left. RCA is owned by the French (Thomsen) and
Sylvania/Magnavox by the Dutch. But no one says anything about the
Europeans, because they are white. But mention Sony buying
Columbia, and you hear xenophobic prattle.
But I digress...
