			   COMCAST AND LIBERTY MEDIA
			    EXTEND QVC TENDER OFFER

		     ____________________________________


Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Englewood, Colorado -- September 7, 1994:
Comcast Corporation announced today that it does not expect that the
applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements
Act relating to the acquisition of QVC, Inc. will have expired by September
8, 1994, the date on which the tender offer for the stock of QVC is currently
scheduled to expire.
	       As a result, QVC Programming Holdings, Inc., an acquisition
vehicle jointly owned by Comcast and Liberty Media Corporation, has extended
the expiration date for the tender offer until 12:00 Midnight, New York City
time, on September 22, 1994.  As a consequence of the extension of the
expiration date, holders of QVC shares are entitled to tender or withdraw
their shares pursuant to the tender offer until 12:00 Midnight, New York time,
on September 22, 1994, unless the offer is further extended.
	       If the applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Antitrust Improvements Act have not expired or been terminated at such time,
QVC Programming Holdings, Inc. may elect to extend the tender offer beyond
such time.  However, under the terms of the Merger Agreement pursuant to which
the tender offer is being made, QVC Programming Holdings, Inc. may not
terminate the tender offer prior to December 31, 1994 by reason of the
applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements
Act not having expired or been terminated, although the expiration of the
applicable waiting periods is a condition to the tender offer.
