Item 7(b) of National Media Corporation's (the "Registrant") Current Report on
Form 8-K, dated May 17, 1996 (the "Report"), is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety as follows:

Item 7.   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS

          (b)  PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

The following Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet (unaudited) at March 31, 1996
and Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income (unaudited) for the 12 months
ended March 31, 1996 give pro forma effect to (i) the Registrant's acquisition
of DirectAmerica Corporation and California Production Group, Inc.
(collectively, "DirectAmerica") in October 1995, and (ii) the Registrant's
acquisition of Positive Response Television, Inc. ("Positive Response")
described more fully under Item 2 of the Report, as if such transactions
occurred as of March 31, 1996 for the Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet and
as of April 1, 1995 for the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income.  Each of
such acquisitions was treated as a "purchase" for accounting purposes.

The Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet is based on (i) the Registrant's
historical condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1996 (which
reflects the acquisition of DirectAmerica in October 1995), and (ii) Positive
Response's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1996.

The Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income is based on (i) the Registrant's
historical condensed consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1996 (which reflects data for DirectAmerica for the period
beginning October 25, 1995 through March 31, 1996), (ii) Positive Response's
unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine month
period ended December 31, 1995 and the three month period ended March 31, 1996,
and (iii) a pro-rata portion (approximately 70%) of DirectAmerica's unaudited
historical combined statement of operations for the period January 1 to
October 24, 1995.

The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the combined
results of operations or financial position that would have been reported had
these transactions taken place as of March 31, 1996 with respect to the Pro
Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet data or as of April 1, 1995 with respect to the
Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income data, as the case may be, or future
results of operations or financial position of the Registrant.  The Pro Forma
Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the
Registrant's historical financial statements and related notes thereto included
in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, and
the historical financial statements and notes thereto of Positive Response for
the year ended December 31, 1995 and the three months ended March 31, 1996
included in the Report under Item 7(a).

The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements do not give effect to any shares
of the Registrant's common stock which may be issued to shareholders of
DirectAmerica contingent upon certain revenue levels being achieved.  See the
Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K, dated October 19, 1995, under Item 2
for a complete description of the circumstances under which such shares may be
issued. The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements do give effect to the
issuance of the Escrow Shares (as defined under Item 2 of the Report).
