NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A. H. Belo Corporation and Subsidiaries

(1)      The  unaudited  consolidated  condensed  financial statements as of
         March 31, 1995 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995
         and 1994 and related notes should be read in conjunction with the
         audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of
         December 31, 1994.

(2)      In the opinion of A. H. Belo Corporation (the "Company" or "Belo")
         management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
         financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present
         fairly the Company's financial position as of March 31, 1995, and its
         results of operations and cash flows for the indicated periods.  All
         such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

         Certain amounts for the prior periods have been reclassified to
         conform to the current year presentation.

(3)      On June 1, 1994, Belo acquired the assets of television station
         WWL-TV, the CBS affiliate in New Orleans, Louisiana from Rampart
         Operating Partnership for approximately $110,000,000 in cash.  On
         February 1, 1995, Belo acquired Third Avenue Television, Inc., holder
         of the assets of television station KIRO-TV in Seattle, Washington.
         On the same date, Belo acquired the FCC license of television station
         KIRO-TV and certain other related assets from Bonneville Holding
         Company.  The purchase price was $162,500,000 in cash, plus
         transaction costs.

         The costs of the acquisitions have been allocated on the basis of the
         estimated fair market values of the assets acquired.  These
         allocations resulted in excess cost over values assigned to tangible
         assets of purchased subsidiaries for WWL-TV of $81,673,000 and for
         KIRO-TV of $120,643,000.  The KIRO-TV purchase allocation is still
         preliminary.  These amounts are being amortized on a straight line
         basis over 40 years.

         The pro forma financial results of operations below, which reflect
         purchase price adjustments including average revolving debt rates in
         effect for the periods presented, assume both the WWL-TV and KIRO-TV
         transactions took place effective January 1, 1994  (in thousands):

         A change of 1/8 of one percent in revolving debt rates would affect
        the pro forma results by $54,000 after taxes.

         The pro forma financial information is provided for informational
         purposes only and is not necessarily representative of the operating
         results that would have occurred had the acquisitions been completed
         as of the indicated dates, nor is it indicative of future operating
         results.

A. H. Belo Corporation and Subsidiaries



(4)      During the three months ended March 31, 1995, Belo repurchased 148,000
         shares of treasury stock for an aggregate purchase price of
         $8,440,000.  All of these shares have been retired, resulting in an
         $8,440,000 reduction in total shareholders' equity.

(5)      On February 22, 1995, the Company announced a two-for-one stock split
         in the form of a stock dividend whereby one additional share of Series
         A and Series B Common Stock will be issued for each share of Series A
         and Series B Common Stock outstanding on May 19, 1995, the record date
         for the split.  The stock split will be effected on June 9, 1995.  The
         effect of the stock split will be to double the number of shares
         outstanding and reduce earnings per share and other per share amounts
         by one-half.  Total shareholders' equity and the proportionate
         ownership in the Company of individual shareholders will not be
         affected by the stock split.  All information in this report is set
         forth on a pre-split basis.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


FINANCIAL CONDITION

    Cash provided by operations is Belo's primary source of liquidity.  During
the first quarter of 1995, cash provided by operations was $18,439,000,
compared to $23,342,000 for the  first quarter of 1994.  The decrease  during
1995 when compared to 1994 was due to larger payments in the current year for
taxes, interest and other payables.  Cash from operations was more than
sufficient to fund capital expenditures and the payment of dividends.  Excess
cash from operations was also used to fund the majority of the purchase of
148,000 treasury shares for $8,440,000.  These shares were subsequently
retired.

    On February 1, 1995, Belo acquired KIRO-TV.  The purchase price was
$162,500,000 in cash, plus transaction costs.  The acquisition was completed
using funds from Belo's existing revolving credit agreement.  The transaction
was accounted for as a purchase. At the time of the acquisition, KIRO-TV was a
CBS television affiliate; however, under Belo's ownership, the station is being
operated as a United Paramount Network affiliate.

    At March 31, 1995, Belo had access to a $600,000,000 variable rate
revolving credit agreement, on which borrowings at that time were $441,000,000.
The agreement expires on August 5, 1999 with an extension to August 5, 2000 at
the request of the Company, and with consent of the participating banks. From
time to time, short-term unsecured notes are also used as a source of
financing.  Based on the Company's intent and ability to renew short-term notes
through the revolving credit facility, short-term borrowings are classified as
long-term.  At March 31, 1995, $47,000,000 in short-term notes were
outstanding.  Total debt outstanding increased by $164,000,000 from December
31, 1994 due primarily to the KIRO acquisition.

    Belo has in place a stock repurchase program authorizing the purchase of up
to $2,500,000 of Company stock annually.  In addition, Belo has the authority
to purchase approximately 661,000 shares of Series A Common Stock from time to
time remaining from a previous authorization from the Board of Directors.

    At March 31, 1995, Belo's ratio of long-term debt to total capitalization
was 56.2 percent, compared to 46.3 percent at the end of 1994.  The change
during the first quarter was due to an increase in borrowings associated with
the KIRO acquisition and the effect on shareholders' equity of the repurchase
and subsequent retirement of treasury shares.

    Capital expenditures in the first quarter of 1995 were $8,838,000.  Capital
projects for the period included major building renovations at The Dallas
Morning News and the continuation of a building and studio remodeling project
at Belo's Houston station that began in 1994. Belo expects to finance future
capital expenditures using net cash generated from operations and, when
necessary, borrowings under the revolving credit agreement.

    Belo paid dividends of $2,986,000 or 15 cents per share on Series A and
Series B Common Stock outstanding during the first quarter of 1995 compared to
$3,038,000 during the first quarter of 1994.  Belo has announced a two-for-one
stock split in the form of a stock dividend whereby on June 9, 1995, one
additional share of Series A and Series B Common Stock will be issued for each
share of Series A and Series B Common Stock.  The record date for the split is
May 19, 1995.  The Board has approved a second quarter dividend  of  8 cents
per share on a post-split basis.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Net earnings for the first quarter of 1995 were $11,443,000 (57 cents per
share) compared to net earnings of $10,038,000 (49 cents per share) for 1994.
Net earnings for 1994 included a $631,000 (2 cents per share) increase from the
reversal of certain music license fees accrued in previous periods.

    Revenues of $163,039,000 improved 23.5 percent overall from first quarter
1994 revenues of $132,047,000.  Newspaper publishing revenues of $93,300,000
were 12.5 percent better than last year revenues of $82,921,000.  The
improvement is primarily the result of increased advertising rates in all
categories.  Classified advertising revenues, benefiting from both rate and
volume increases, have continued an upward trend which began in 1994, posting a
22.2 percent increase in revenues for the first quarter of 1995 compared to the
same period in 1994.  Employment and automotive advertising volumes also
continued to improve during the period, although there was a slight decline in
March 1995 automotive linage concurrent with the most recent rate increase for
automotive advertising.  Volumes in the general advertising category were up
slightly in the current period, while retail volumes were down.  Circulation
rate increases implemented in mid-year 1994 contributed to an 11.7 percent
increase in circulation revenues, despite slightly lower Sunday circulation
volumes.

    Broadcast revenues of $69,739,000 were 42 percent higher than first quarter
1994 revenues of $49,126,000.  Contributing to the significant increase were
the revenues of WWL-TV which was acquired on June 1, 1994 and KIRO-TV, which
was purchased on February 1, 1995.  Excluding these two new television
stations, broadcast revenues improved 13.2 percent over last year.  The
improvement was due in part to significantly higher local advertising revenues
at Belo's Dallas and Hampton-Norfolk stations together with higher national
spot advertising at all but the Sacramento station.  Automotive advertising,
both local and national, was strong in nearly all markets.  Belo's ABC and CBS
affiliates benefited from significant increases in 1995 network compensation,
which helped offset the loss of revenues generated by the Winter Olympics
carried on Belo's CBS stations in February of 1994.

    Operating expenses during the first quarter of 1995 were $137,528,000, or
21.9 percent higher than in the same period of 1994.  Excluding the two new
television stations, expenses were 9.8 percent higher.  Newsprint, ink and
other supplies increased by more than 16 percent due to higher newsprint
prices, but was offset some by reduced consumption and lower supplement costs.
Market-wide price increases for newsprint are expected to continue throughout
1995 and could cause total newsprint expense to increase by as much as 40
percent over 1994 levels.  Merit increases and more employees contributed to
the increase in salaries, wages and employee benefits. Other production,
distribution and operating costs include the effect of the 1994 music license
fee credit as well as higher costs in 1995 for trucking and distribution,
promotional expenses and start up efforts for a recently formed distribution
partnership.  Depreciation and amortization expenses in 1995 were higher
because of the two recent broadcast acquisitions.

    First quarter 1995 interest expense of $6,616,000 was substantially higher
than 1994 first quarter interest expense of $2,820,000 due to borrowing
associated with the purchases of WWL-TV on June 1, 1994 and KIRO-TV on February
1, 1995.  Higher interest rates also contributed to the increase in 1995
expense.
