<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Englewood, Colorado, November&nbsp;3,
2008 - Liberty Media Corporation (&#147;Liberty&#148;) (NASDAQ: LMDIA, LMDIB, LCAPA,
LCAPB, LINTA, LINTB) today released updated and incremental information on its financial
position and financing plans.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;Liberty continues to use our large cash
position to reduce our debt at a discount to face value and shrink other
contingent exposures,&#148; said Greg Maffei, Liberty President and CEO.&#160; &#147;Given the turbulent markets, we are
efficiently reducing financial risk and increasing transparency to give
investors greater certainty.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Swaps</font></u></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Liberty is a party to two
sets of swap arrangements related to its debt securities; one referencing a
portion of its exchangeable debentures and the other referencing a portion of
its senior debentures.&#160; Liberty entered
into these swaps in an attempt to reduce the price at which the bonds are
eventually retired.&#160; The recent decline
in Liberty&#146;s bond prices caused these swaps to hit certain &#147;triggers&#148; that
allowed the counterparties to terminate the swaps.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Liberty has reached
agreement on the termination of the swap arrangement on its exchangeable
debentures by payment to the counterparty of $197.3 million.&#160; This payment will be funded with a combination
of available cash and a drawdown on an existing credit facility secured by an
equity derivative, in both cases attributed to Liberty Capital.&#160; Liberty expects to enter into a new swap
agreement related to these exchangeable debentures at a lower notional amount
of $150 million.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Liberty has also given
notice to settle the swap on its senior debentures by payment to the
counterparty of $23.4 million and expects to complete this today.&#160; As a result of this settlement, Liberty will
retire $124.8 million face amount of debt.&#160;
The difference between the cash settlement amount and the face amount of
debt retired represents previously posted cash collateral related to this
swap.&#160; After this termination Liberty
will have no swaps that reference its senior debentures.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The change in
attribution of Liberty Media LLC&#146;s 3.25% exchangeable senior debentures due
2031 (the &#147;Viacom Exchangeable Debt&#148;) and cash from Liberty Entertainment to
Liberty Interactive was done primarily to provide additional liquidity to
Liberty Interactive which will use the cash to fund the tender offer described
below.&#160; If this tender is successful, it
will reduce Liberty Interactive&#146;s interest expense.&#160; The Viacom Exchangeable Debt, which has a
face amount at maturity of $551 million, was formerly attributed to Liberty
Entertainment.&#160; In consideration of the
attribution of this liability to Liberty Interactive, $380 million of cash that
had been attributed to Liberty Entertainment is now attributed to Liberty Interactive.&#160; The change in attribution of the debt and
cash was intended to be a value neutral transaction and fair to both of the
tracking stocks.&#160; It is also a necessary
step in any potential split-off of Liberty Entertainment, which continues to be
evaluated.&#160; In determining the amount of
cash to be attributed to Liberty Interactive, Liberty&#146;s Board of Directors, in
consultation with its financial advisor, took into account a number of factors,
including recent market prices and the tax characteristics of the Viacom
Exchangeable.&#160; Liberty&#146;s holding in
Viacom common stock remains attributed to Liberty Capital.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Liberty intends to
use approximately $300 million of cash to purchase a portion of the outstanding
principal amount (plus accrued interest) of Liberty Media LLC&#146;s 8.5% senior
debentures due 2029 and 8.25% senior debentures due 2030 through a modified
dutch auction tender offer procedure.&nbsp; Liberty expects that the minimum
and maximum purchase price for both series will be $550.00 and $620.00&nbsp;per
$1,000 principal amount, respectively.&nbsp; The debentures are attributable to
the Liberty Interactive tracking stock group.&nbsp; The terms and conditions of
the tender offer will be described in an offer to purchase and related letter
of transmittal that will be sent to debenture holders when we commence the
tender offer.&nbsp; Nothing in this release shall be deemed to constitute an
offer to purchase or a solicitation of any offer to sell the debentures or any
other securities.&nbsp; The tender offer will be made solely by the offer to
purchase and the related offer documents.&#160;
Commencement of the tender offer is expected to occur today.&#160; Liberty has retained Citi and Deutsche Bank
Securities to serve as co-dealer managers for the tender offer.</font></p>
