A case in nevada is pitting the 90 year old against his three children over who will gain control of the company when he dies. It was held Behind Closed Doors but the decision when it comes will also be secret. Vegas is where you go to get married, they say, and reno to get divorced. Now this has become the somewhat unlikely location for settling a Family Power Struggle between the Media Mogul Rupert murdoch and his children. Are you confident of victory . Normally, we would be inside a courtroom like this reporting whats going on. But for this one, we are locked out. I want a broadcast network. I want to see what other News Operations we can sweep up. Local tv . Dad, nobody watches tv. The case has been nicknamed succession because of its resemblance to the Tv Show inspired by the murdoch family. Rupert murdoch owns many newspapers and television networks, include the right Wing Outlet Fox news. His eldest children were set to get equal power over his corporations but now, he reportedly wants to give full control to his eldest son lachlan, who is believed to share his fathers more conservative views. Mr murdoch, are you confident of victory . | and the laws in nevada allow the case to be held in private. There is a huge amount on the line here and here what you have is an irrevocable trust that Rupert Murdoch is attempting to change. So in most states, thats very difficult. In nevada, its a little easier. Locally, there is surprise this battle has been happening on the doorstep. I might even drive past the courthouse on my way home. The fact it is being kept. So secret is kind of shady. It could have so much impact. On our future and the future of the information that the public receives in this country. Us audiences are already deeply divided over the way politics is portrayed on different networks. You hear one thing on this station and you hear the absolute opposite, and its like, you are lying to people and their gullible and theyre believing it. The outcome of this case matters because Rupert Murdochs powerful Media Empire has helped shape politics and the careers of political leaders around the world. And it has a big influence on the type of news many people consume day to day. We may never know the full details of how this Power Struggle within the Murdoch News Empire gets resolved. On this occasion, Rupert Murdoch appears unwilling to become the news himself. Emma vardy, Bbc News, reno.

Eventually that will get into northern england, and for Northern Ireland, the rest of england and wales it is a mixture of bright spells, sunny intervals and some scattered showers. It is also going to feel fresher than yesterday, especially in the north, because we are starting to pull in a northerly wind behind our Weather Front. This that Weather Front is going to continue to sink southwards tonight, with it showers. There will be clear skies around, showers across south West England, drifting into central southern england, and it will be cold enough in sheltered glens and rural parts of Northern Ireland for a touch of frost, as temperatures slip just below freezing. But again, a Cooler Night across the board than recent nights. As we head from wednesday into thursday, you can see how we have got the next low pressure pushing steadily northwards and eastwards, Cooler Air comes in right behind it, across the country, so you will feel the draught literally during the course of friday. But back to wednesday, we have Rain Coming in from the south west. Some of this will be heavy as it pushes into south West England and wales, getting into central, southern england by The End of the day. Moving north, it is bright spells and showers, with temperatures 10 to about 17, so temperatures dipping once again.
