QVC Network Inc., as expected, named Barry Diller its chairman and chief executive officer.

Mr. Diller, 50 years old, succeeds Joseph M. Segel, who has been named to the post of chairman emeritus. Mr. Diller previously was chairman and chief executive of Fox Inc. and Twentieth Century Fox Film Corp., both units of News Corp. He also served for 10 years as chairman and chief executive of Paramount Pictures Corp., a unit of Paramount Communications Inc.

Arrow Investments Inc., a corporation controlled by Mr. Diller, in December agreed to purchase $25 million of QVC stock in a privately negotiated transaction. At that time, it was announced that Diller was in talks with the company on becoming its chairman and chief executive upon Mr. Segel's scheduled retirement this month.
