I don't how frequently Yahoo! Finance updates the beta's, but it looks as though the numbers predate WCOM's bid for MCIC.

Regardless, beta is not synonymous with volatility: the former is a measure of how a stock correlates with the market, while the latter reflects total risk associated with owning a stock.
