An “influential website for parents” has canceled a contract with U.K. broadcaster Sky -- which Rupert Murdoch partially owns, and is seeking to fully acquire -- following allegations that Murdoch's News of the World tabloid hacked the voicemails of a slain teen girl, potentially impeding a police investigation and giving the girl's family false hope that she was still alive.

From the Brand Republic report:

[Mumsnet chief executive Justine Roberts] said even though Murdoch's News Corporation, which owns News International, publisher of the News of the World, is only a part owner of BSkyB, the community believed it should not be running advertising it felt was associated with the Milly Dowler phone-hacking allegations currently engulfing the paper.

She said Mumsnet's values were based on “helping mothers to have a better life”, and promoting Sky at this time did not fit with its stance.

Roberts said: “The Milly Dowler allegations have been universally condemned on the thread. The story has really put phone hacking into perspective for everyone. It is not some nebulous media war any more.”

Additionally, The Telegraph reported that the News of the World hacking allegations may be threatening subscriptions to another Murdoch-owned publication, The Times:

Highly critical messages were also posted on the website of the News of the World's sister paper, The Times, threatening to cancel their subscriptions.

One reader, David Thornton, posted a message saying: “The utterly morally bankrupt organisation that is News International will never get another penny from me. I am cancelling my Times and Sky subscriptions. Anyone who buys the News of the World ever again should feel thoroughly ashamed of themselves.”

Yesterday, in response to the new hacking allegations, Ford Motor suspended all advertising with News of the World, and several other companies -- including T-Mobile -- are reportedly considering following suit.

A July 5 Financial Times editorial noted the hacking scandal “has inflicted great reputational damage on News Corp. This should be of concern not just to Mr Murdoch but also to the company's wider shareholder base. After all, the group is seeking to expand its UK interests massively with the acquisition of the broadcaster, BSkyB.”

UPDATE: The AP reports today that investors “dumped shares in News Corp., causing them to slump 4.2 percent on the Nasdaq index in New York.”

Reuters reports that in addition to Ford, car makers “Vauxhall and Mitsubishi Motors, along with Britain's biggest high street lender Lloyds and billionaire Richard Branson's Virgin Holidays, have dropped advertising in the News of the World due to allegations of hacking by the newspaper.”

Reuters also reported the following comments “from major advertisers, many of them responding to a barrage of messages on Twitter from consumers calling for boycotts of News of the World and other UK titles belonging to Rupert Murdoch including The Sun and The Times”:

Bourne Leisure (Butlins, Haven Holidays, Warner Leisure): “We review all our sources of advertising regularly and we will not be advertising in NoW (News of the World).”
