FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

        JACOR PROMOTES WALET TO VICE PRESIDENT, NATIONAL SALES

COVINGTON, KY April 13, 1998:  Jacor Communications Company recognized the
outstanding achievements of Taylor Walet today by promoting the widely
respected sales veteran to Vice President, National Sales.  Walet had been
Jacor's National Sales Director.  From his offices in New York, Walet has
canvassed national sales accounts for Jacor since arriving at the Company two
years ago.  Under his leadership, Jacor's radio stations' national sales have
been on a high growth curve.  According to Bobby Lawrence, Chief Operating
Officer of Jacor Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: JCOR), the parent company of
Jacor Communications Company, "Consolidation in the radio industry is making
national sales more important than ever before.  We brought Taylor on board to
focus our national sales efforts two years ago, just after Telecom.  He stepped
right up to the plate and has been knocking the ball out of the park ever
since.  This promotion recognizes Taylor's contribution to our radio stations
success, both past and future."

Prior to joining Jacor, Walet was general manager in Omaha, Nebraska for three
properties for Journal Communications.  Says Walet, "Working for Jacor in
national sales is great because this company gets it: Jacor has combined the
power of the regional cluster with the added attraction of formatic diversity. 
National advertisers can reach targeted demographics across 19 states by
selecting among Jacor's multiple, highly rated formats.  Consolidation has
changed the landscape of national radio sales and Jacor is on the leading
edge."

Walet will continue to run national sales for the Jacor radio stations out of
his current offices in New York.
