Microsoft Corporation has had talks with News Corporation about a tie up, which would involve News Corporation getting paid to take its news websites off Google Incorporation, a source familiar with the matter said on Sunday.

News Corporation, which owns such papers as the Wall Street Journal and the Sun, started the discussions, which were at an early stage, the source said.

Microsoft has also talked with other online publishers about removing their sites from Google, according to the Financial Times, which first reported the development.

Microsoft could not be reached immediately on Sunday. News Corp declined to comment. The source is anonymous because the talks are not public.
