     MARCUS CABLE COMPLETES SALE OF NON-STRATEGIC CABLE SYSTEMS
           IN MISSISSIPPI, TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA TO CABLE ONE

Dallas, TX.---Marcus Cable announced  today that it has completed the
previously announced divestiture of certain non-clustered cable
television systems located in Mississippi, Louisiana, the Texas
Panhandle and Oklahoma to Cable One, Inc.  The cable television systems
serve approximately 72,000 customers from seventeen headends.

In commenting on the sale, Jeffrey A. Marcus, Chairman and CEO said,
"Last fall we announced our plans to divest certain cable systems
outside of our core geographic clusters.  The completion of this
divestiture represents the second closing in the series of four
previously announced transactions through which we will sell off our
non-strategic assets.  Cable One is a well-managed organization with a
reputation for high quality service.  I am confident that our customers
will continue to be well served under the management of Cable One." 
Andy Armstrong, President of Waller Capital Corporation is representing
Marcus Cable in the sale of the systems.  

Marcus Cable is principally engaged in the management and operation of
domestic wired telecommunications networks, including cable television
systems, distance education networks and internet services.  It is
currently the nation's tenth largest cable operator serving over 1.2
million customers in 18 states.  More information on Marcus Cable can
be found on the company's website on the internet at
