Rupert Murdoch is engaged in a secret legal battle with three of his children over the future of his media empire, according to sealed court documents obtained by The New York Times. Murdoch is reportedly attempting to change the family’s irrevocable trust to ensure that his media businesses, including Fox, remain a conservative political force after his death. The legal battle involves giving his son Lachlan complete control of the empire, a move opposed by several of his other children. Murdoch has hired Bill Barr to assist in altering the trust. The future of $FOXA could be impacted by a judge in Reno, NV.
