Integration, chapter IV, § 5. Measurable functions and sets

— Every locally negligible open set is negligible (and is therefore contained in the complement of the support of μ\mu).

For, the outer measure of an open set G is the supremum of the measures ∣μ∣(K)|\mu|(K) of the compact sets K⊂GK \subset G (§ 4, No. 6, Cor. 4 of Th. 4); if G is locally negligible then ∣μ∣(K)=0|\mu|(K) = 0 for every compact set K contained in G, therefore ∣μ∣∗(G)=0|\mu|^*(G) = 0.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
