Here is the lede:
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear arguments from the husband and four wives who star in the television show "Sister Wives," letting stand a lower court ruling that kept polygamy a crime in Utah.
The story indicates the Supremes let stand a Denver appeals court ruling that "The Browns" had no standing to sue in the first place under the Utah statute.
Viewership of their Sister Wives show struggles around the 2 million mark.
Duck Dynasty by contrast, a show about a large successful colorful but traditional family, averaged 8.7 million viewers in 2013.
