DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS, INC.! EXPANDS BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT DIVISION

November 24, 1992 -- Discovery Communications, Inc., (DCI) is expanding its
Business Development Division by creating a New Technology unit and by
moving the company's Enterprises Group -- world-wide program sales and
home-video sales -- into the Business Development Division. Another of the
company's established businesses --Interactive Video, producer of the
highly acclaimed Discovery Interactive Library -- will become part of
Enterprises. These business units will join International Network
Development in the newly configured Business Development Division. The
announcement was made today by John Hendricks, DCI's Founder, Chairman and
CEO.

The Discovery Communications, Inc., Business Development Division continues
to be headed by its Senior Vice President Domenick Fioravanti. Reporting
to Fioravanti are Tom Porter, Vice President of the Enterprises Group,
Fred Bonner, Vice President of New Technology Development, and Sandy
McGovern, Senior Vice President International Sales and Distribution.

"We are aggressively positioning DCI for the third revolution in
television, the new era of choice for the consumer," said Hendricks. "With
our seven years of rapid growth and success for The Discovery Channel,
we've proven that there was pent-up demand in U.S. for high-quality,
entertaining non-fiction programming."

Hendricks continued, "Now we've decided to build on our successful core
network business by looking beyond our shores and to new technologies in
order to explore and build new businesses and channels of distribution, as
well as forge new business partnerships. As these products become part of
our mainstream business, we must continue to move forward, staying ahead
of our competition, ready to provide Discovery's unique brand of
programming to whatever new media come to the fore during the next
industry."

Fioravanti added, "The consolidation of these business units will position
DCI to effectively and efficiently move into an expanding variety of
multimedia opportunities. The Discovery Interactive Library is in a
position to grow with today's rapidly evolving interactive marketplace. We
are particularly optimistic since all of our existing science products
were officially adopted by the state of California for purchase with state
textbook funds. As we add more titles to The Discovery Interactive
Library, we will also look for partners to join us in bringing
high-quality, curriculum-based interactivity to our classrooms."

Discovery's Enterprises Group is responsible for worldwide TV sales and
pre-sales of original Discovery and Learning Channel productions,
including footage sales, The Discovery Interactive Library, and four
home-video brand lines --Discovery Video Library, Discovery Collector's
Editions, WINGS Aviation Collection and The Learning Collection. The unit
will continue to research, develop and test video-on-demand and explore
publishing opportunities in the book and audio areas. The Enterprises
Group distributes its own product lines and, when appropriate, works will
development and distribution partners.

Discovery's New Technology Development Unit will research and explore ways
in which the company can best participate in emerging new interactive
technologies, such as CD ROM, CD-I and interactive cable.

Discovery Communications, Inc., is a diversified multimedia company
anchored by Discovery Networks -- The Discovery Channel and The Learning
Channel. DCI operates businesses in home video, interactive multimedia,
magazine publishing, merchandising, and international sales and
distribution.
