Company Press Release

Jones Naughton Entertainment, Inc. to Offer GTE Prepaid Calling Cards to
Advertising Clients

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 25, 1998--Jones Naughton
Entertainment, Inc. (OTC BB:JNNE) and its AMS, Inc. subsidiary
elaborated on an earlier announcement confirming they have received
authorization from the Prepaid Calling Card Division of GTE
Communications Corporation (NYSE:GTE - news) to offer prepaid calling
cards as a promotional service to its existing advertising clients.

Jones Naughton and AMS, Inc. intend to offer these cards to clients as
part of the family of media products currently available. Advertising
clients can place promotional announcements in the initial welcome
greeting of the instructional guidelines. Companies can use this
opportunity to inform customers on goods and services available through
their firm and to increase name recognition.

After listening to the promotional greeting and calling instructions,
customers will be allowed to make free calls for a predetermined length
of time. When the amount of time is used up the caller can pay for
additional time via credit card. Additional services such as store
locators, customer surveys, call transfers, warranty registration and
consumer tracking can be added to the telecommunication service.

''Adding promotional prepaid calling card products to our existing list
of media services gives our advertising base a unique approach to
informing customers of new products and services and increases name
recognition. Preliminary interest from our advertisers has been very
strong. Joining forces with an industry giant such as GTE provides us
with a quality partner that can handle complex technical applications
and large volumes of call traffic.

''The sale of calling cards will add to our revenue stream and launch
Jones Naughton into the mainstream of marketing telecommunications
products and services,'' stated Patrick M. Rost, director of Business
Development for Jones Naughton Entertainment, Inc.
