Acquisition

Media Corporation PLC
                  Media Corporation PLC

Acquisition of Result Online Limited

The Board of Media Corporation plc ('Media Corp'), a leading internet media and
marketing Company, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Result Online
Limited ('Result Online'), a leading financial portal operator and owner of
credit card comparison website www.creditcardexpert.co.uk ('Creditcardexpert').

Result Online, established in 2003, has grown rapidly into a highly profitable
operator in the personal finance market. Its credit card comparison site
www.creditcardexpert.co.uk provides a comprehensive guide to UK credit cards
highlighting the best deals available and giving general credit card tips to
consumers. The site provides information on most major credit cards including
Barclaycard, American Express and MBNA.

Income is generated through affiliate deals where credit card operators pay
Result Online for credit card applications and related cost per click search
advertising.

Creditcardexpert has top listings in the major search engines for 'credit cards'
and other relevant search terms related to them. The websites owned by Result
Online receive over 80,000 unique monthly visitors and generate over 30,000
credit card applications per year.

The business was founded by Stephen Hewitt, who has rapidly developed one of the
most successful finance websites in the UK. He was previously marketing manager
in credit card customer acquisition for HFC Bank plc. Stephen has had various
account management roles within advertising agencies in both the UK and the US.
Stephen will continue as Managing Director of the business.

The total consideration for the acquisition of Result Online is comprised of an
initial payment of £1.57 million and earn out consideration equating to 25% of
adjusted pre tax profits generated over the three year period ending 30
September 2009. These further payments are conditional on the business achieving
an adjusted pre tax profit of not less than £0.35 million in each of the
financial years ending 30 September 2007 to 2009 inclusive and are capped at
£1.5 million.

In addition, as further consideration Stephen Hewitt has been granted warrants
to subscribe for 1,000,000 shares in Media Corporation plc at a price of 6 pence
per share.

In the accounts for the period ended 31 July 2006, Result Online generated a
gross profit of £0.55 million and a profit before tax of £0.43 million. Tangible
net assets were £0.73 million.

Justin Drummond, Chief Executive, said,

'This acquisition is a major step for Media Corp and fits perfectly with our
previously stated strategy of further diversification into the lucrative
personal finance and travel markets.

Synergies are immediately apparent as Result Online uses a competitor of Search
Focus, the Group's search business, for its paid search advertising. In
addition, Eyeconomy, Media Corp's online media agency business, has its
principal advertising client base in the personal finance market'.

'The characteristics of the personal finance market are almost identical to the
gaming industry in that customer acquisition costs and customer churn are both
very high. This makes these markets particularly attractive for the Group's
search advertising business.'

This is an excellent deal for the Group and as previously stated will be the
first of many in the fast growing personal finance and travel markets as we
execute our strategy of building a major internet media and marketing business'.
