(Reuters) - In a significant victory for news media, a federal appeals court said the Federal Reserve must disclose records on emergency lending programs to banks bailed out by the government in the financial crisis.

The U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday ordered the Fed to release details of emergency lending programs it adopted starting in late 2007 to shore up the financial system and forestall a complete meltdown of global financial markets.

Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News, and News Corp's Fox News Network sought details of the central bank's actions under the federal Freedom of Information Act, or FOIA, which requires government agencies to make documents public.

The Fed argued against disclosure, citing an exemption that it said allows federal agencies to refuse to disclose trade secrets and commercial or financial information.

It also contended that allowing disclosure of participants in the programs and the collateral they posted could cause "competitive and reputational harm," perhaps triggering bank runs, and impede the central bank's ability "to effectively manage the current, and any future, financial crisis."

But giving the Fed power to deny disclosure because it thinks it best to do so "would undermine the basic policy that disclosure, not secrecy, is the dominant objective of," Chief Judge Dennis Jacobs wrote for a three-judge panel.

"If the Board believes such an exemption would better serve the national interest," he added, "it should ask Congress to amend the statute."

Bloomberg had won its case at the district court level, while Fox News had lost its case. The Second Circuit ruling threw out the ruling against Fox and ordered a lower court judge to decide what materials must be disclosed.
