Report of Independent Auditors
The Benefits Administrative Committee
A. H. Belo Corporation
Employee Savings and Investment Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the A. H. Belo Corporation Employee Savings and Investment Plan
(the "Plan") as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in its net assets available for
plan benefits for the years then eneded, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules
of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1993, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of complying
with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and are
not a required part of the basic financial statements. The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit
of the 1993 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the 1993 basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

A. H. BELO CORPORATION
EMPLOYEE SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993 AND 1992
1. Description of the Plan
The following description of the A. H. Belo Corporation Employee
Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan") provides only general
information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for
more complete information.
General
The Plan, a defined contribution plan, was established effective
October 1, 1989. The Plan covers all employees of A. H. Belo
Corporation, The Dallas Morning News, Inc., WFAA TV, Inc., WVEC
Television, Inc., DFW Suburban Newspapers, Inc., DFW Printing Company,
Great Western Broadcasting Corporation (KXTV), KHOU-TV, Inc., KOTV,
Inc. and Belo Productions, Inc. (collectively, the "Employer") who
have attained age 21 and have completed one year of service or who
participated in the Employer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan before
October 1, 1989. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Administration
The Plan is administered by the Benefits Administrative Committee,
which consists of members appointed by the Board of Directors of A. H.
Belo Corporation.
Income tax status
The Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code (the "Code") and, therefore, would be exempt from federal
income taxes under provisions of Section 501(a) of the Code. The Plan
obtained its latest favorable tax determination letter from the
Internal Revenue Service effective August 7, 1992 for the period
beginning October 1, 1989, subject to the Plan's adoption of
certain amendments. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in
conformity with the applicable qualification requirements. The Plan
has been amended since receiving the latest determination letter.
However, the Plan Administrative Committee does not have any reason to
believe that the Plan is not designed and being operated in accordance
with the Code. Furthermore, the Plan Administrative Committee is not
aware of any events or occurrences that might adversely affect the
qualified status of the Plan, including certain Plan amendments not
covered by the latest determination letter.
Contributions
Participants may elect to contribute a portion of their pretax
compensation, as provided by the Plan and IRS regulations. Such
contributions are withheld by the Employer from each participant's
compensation and deposited in the appropriate investment fund as
directed by the participant. Participants direct the allocation of
their contributions to any of the five following investment
funds: A. H. Belo Corporation Series A Common Stock, Fidelity
Magellan Fund, Fidelity Puritan Fund, Fidelity Retirement Government
Money Market Portfolio, and Fidelity Growth and Income Portfolio.
During 1992, the Employer made a matching contribution to the Plan in
an amount equal to 35% of the participant
4
<PAGE> 8
1. Description of the Plan (continued)
contributions, up to 5% of compensation. Effective July 1, 1993, the
Employer matching contribution was increased from 35% to 50% of the
participant contributions, up to 6% of compensation. In addition, the
maximum pretax contribution was increased from 10% to 15% of
participant's compensation. Participants are fully vested in Employer
matching contributions at the time the contributions are credited to
their accounts. Employer contributions may be made in cash or in
shares of A. H. Belo Corporation Series A Common Stock or both.
Employer contributions to date have been made in cash and invested by
the Trustee in shares of A. H. Belo Corporation Series A Common Stock.
Rollovers
Effective September 1, 1993, the Plan began accepting rollovers from
employees who had previously participated in a former employer's
qualified plan. Rollovers of $191,224 are included with
participant contributions on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets
Available for Plan Benefits.
Participant accounts
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
contributions, rollovers, Employer's matching contributions, and an
allocation of each investment fund's investment income and
securities gains and losses. Participants are fully vested in their
participant accounts at all times.
Distributions
In accordance with the Plan document and as allowed under the Code,
distribution of a participant's account is available upon the
participant's retirement, death, termination of employment, or
attainment of age 59-1/2; or distribution is available to satisfy a
financial hardship meeting the requirements of the IRS regulations.
Refunds of excess contributions are included in participant
distributions in the statement of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits. At December 31, 1993 and 1992, distributions
payable is comprised of such excess participant contributions. The
excess contributions are refunded to the participants in the following
year to comply with the discrimination tests described in the Plan and
required by Section 401(k) and Section 401(m) of the Code.
Loans
Participants are able to borrow against their accounts. The amount of
any loan cannot exceed 50% of the participant's account or $50,000,
reduced by any previously outstanding loans. Interest charged on
loans is intended to be commercially reasonable and is based on
Texas Commerce Bank's prime rate on the date of loan approval. All
payments with respect to the loan (principal and interest) will be
reinvested to the participant's account based on the participant's
elected investment mix.
Expenses
All expenses incident to the administration of the Plan are charged to
the participants' accounts unless the Employer elects to pay for
such expenses. The Employer has elected to pay substantially all
expenses in 1993 and 1992.

Plan is terminated, each participant shall receive a distribution of
assets equal to the value of the participant's account.
