Labyrinthine drama over which Murdoch child will get Fox Corp empire begins out of public view on Monday
The Murdoch family succession drama enters a new phase in a Reno, Nevada, courtroom this week when patriarch Rupert Murdoch will probably argue that plans by three of his children to potentially change the business model of the news-communications empire will damage the interests of Fox Corp shareholders.
Sadly for followers of the intense and labyrinthine Murdoch family drama – one that partly inspired the fictional HBO series Succession and many of its plot lines – the arguments and testimony stemming from the bitter feud will not be in public view.
