[Rejecting suggestions that Rupert Murdoch might sell the Post in the early 1980s, Alex Cockburn said it would be like Dracula selling his coffin. Evidently this ghoul is having a harder time of it.]

Donald Trump has abandoned his bid to regain control of Atlantic City casinos that bear his name.

Mr. Trump and his daughter Ivanka have reached a settlement agreement with a group of creditors in the bankruptcy battle over control of Trump Entertainment Resorts, which filed for bankruptcy protection in February. Mr. Trump stepped down as chairman of the company in February.

Under the deal, the Trumps will drop their bid to take control of the casinos and cease all litigation against the noteholders. The three Atlantic City casinos will continue to use the Trump name and use the likenesses of Mr. Trump and his daughter in marketing efforts.
