                       CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


The Board of Directors
AT&T Corp.

We consent to the  incorporation by reference in the  registration  statement on
Form S-8 of AT&T Corp. of our report,  dated February 29, 2000,  relating to the
combined balance sheets of Liberty Media Group ("New Liberty" or "Successor") as
of December 31, 1999 and of Liberty Media Group ("Old Liberty" or "Predecessor")
as of December 31, 1998, and the related  combined  statements of operations and
comprehensive  earnings,  combined  equity,  and cash flows for the period  from
March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999  (Successor  period) and from January 1, 1999
to February  28,  1999 and for each of the years in the  two-year  period  ended
December 31, 1998 (Predecessor  periods),  which report appears as an exhibit in
the annual report on Form 10-K of AT&T Corp. dated March 27, 2000.

Our  report  dated  February  29,  2000  refers to the fact  that the  financial
statements  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the  consolidated  financial
statements of AT&T Corp.

Our report dated  February  29, 2000,  contains an  explanatory  paragraph  that
states  that  effective  March 9,  1999,  AT&T  Corp.,  the owner of the  assets
comprising  New Liberty,  acquired  Tele-Communications,  Inc., the owner of the
assets  comprising  Old Liberty,  in a business  combination  accounted for as a
purchase. As a result of the acquisition, the combined financial information for
the periods after the  acquisition  is presented on a different  basis than that
for the periods before the acquisition and, therefore, is not comparable.
