  Premiere Enters into Binding Agreement to Acquire Hot Mix Radio Network 
        and Completes Acquisition of Invasion Music Library

COVINGTON, Kentucky-February 3, 1998-Premiere Radio Networks, Inc., a wholly 
owned subsidiary of Jacor Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: JCOR) announced today
that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the assets of Hot Mix
Radio Network, Inc. In a separate transaction, Premiere completed its
acquisition of the "Invasion" production music library.

Formed approximately 13 years ago, Hot Mix produces seven nationally syndicated
"dance mix" radio programs in four major radio formats.  Hot Mix's prerecorded,
weekly programs are carried by more than 150 radio station affiliates,
including affiliates in such top radio markets as Los Angeles, Chicago and San
Francisco. Hot Mix's programs have been nominated six times for Billboard
Magazine's "Top 40 Network/Syndication Program of the Year Award."  Andrew
Starr, sole shareholder of Hot Mix, will continue with Jacor as a vice
president of its Premiere subsidiary. 

Developed by Brandon D'Amore Productions, "Invasion" is a full service
production music library currently utilized by almost 100 radio stations in the
U.S. and is distributed internationally for use on radio and television.

Commenting on the acquisitions, Steve Lehman, Chief Executive Officer and
President of Premiere, stated, "The acquisitions of Hot Mix and Invasion are
excellent strategic fits for Jacor and Premiere, and integrate well with our
strategy to acquire and develop high quality, hard to duplicate radio
programming and production music libraries.  Further commenting on the Hot Mix
acquisition, Mr. Lehman stated, "Premiere is thrilled to have the proven
talents of Andrew Starr and the staff of Hot Mix join the Jacor/Premiere 
family."

Andrew Starr, Hot Mix's President, commented, "I am ecstatic about the
opportunity to join the Jacor/Premiere team.  I am looking forward to working
with Jacor and Premiere to build on our combined programming strengths, and to
develop new hit radio programs."

Further details regarding the acquisition consideration and other contract
details were not disclosed.

Jacor's subsidiary, Premiere, currently syndicates more than 50 radio programs
and services to more than 4000 radio station affiliates.  Jacor is the nation's
second largest radio station group measured in terms of total stations. 
Including the recently announced Nationwide Communications acquisition and
other announced or pending acquisitions, Jacor owns, operates, or represents
191 radio stations in 49 U.S. broadcast areas, and one television station.
