A second major commercial news outlet in Australia has struck a deal with Google in less than a week, as the tech giant moves to pre-empt an impending media payment law.

Nine Entertainment, which owns radio, newspaper, and television assets across the country, has signed a Letter of Intent with Google Australia to be paid a lump sum of $30 million per annum over five years, according to the Australian Financial Review, which is owned by Nine.
