Judge Rules Murdoch Succession Battle to Remain Sealed

A Nevada court has denied media access to the secretive proceedings over control of Rupert Murdoch's media empire.

A Nevada judge has ruled that the court battle over Rupert Murdoch's family trust will remain closed to the public and media.
The case involves Murdoch's attempt to amend the family trust to ensure his son Lachlan retains control of Fox News and other media assets.
Murdoch's other children, who are more politically moderate, oppose the changes to the trust.
A coalition of media organizations petitioned to unseal the case, arguing that the public has a right to know the proceedings.
The court case, identified only as 'The Matter of the Doe 1 Trust,' is set to begin next week in Reno, Nevada.
