Ford (F) Pulls U.K. Ads with Murdoch's News of the World

Ford Motor's (NYSE: F) U.K. division has removed ads from Rupert Murdoch's News of the World in response to recent allegations.

News Corp is majority owned by Murdoch.

Allegations are that NotW hacked into a 13-year-old girl Milly Dowler's cellphone after she went missing. Dowler turned up deceased shortly after.

Ford shares are up 0.9 percent on the session.
