      Murdoch children in line for $2bn each on media empire break-up

      Mogul’s six offspring would be direct beneficiaries of family trust valued at $12bn  

      Australian born media magnate Rupert Murdoch (C) flanked by his sons Lachlan (L) and James (R) arrive at St Bride's church on Fleet Street in central London on March 5, 2016, to attend a ceremony of celebration a day after the official marriage of Rupert Murdoch and former US model Jerry Hall. Rupert Murdoch married model Jerry Hall in London on Friday March 4, 2016, less than two months after they got engaged, prompting the media mogul to describe himself as the "luckiest" man in the world. It is the fourth marriage for 84-year-old Murdoch and technically the first for Hall, 59, although she had a long-term relationship and four children with Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger. / AFP / Leon NEAL (Photo credit should read LEON NEAL/AFP/Getty Images)

For decades, investors, analysts, busybodies, columnists and gossips have loved to chew over the ultimate media-dynasty question: When Rupert Murdoch was at long last forced to step down -- whether for age, coup or scandal -- which of his children would assume the throne of his vast empire? James or Lachlan or Elisabeth? Now we know the answer. Our editors select the best archive images of the Murdoch family. Photographer: Drew Angerer/Bloomberg
