Amazon.com Inc is in talks with Simon  Schuster Inc, the chief executive of the book publishers parent company said on Tuesday, representing a second front in Amazons feud with the publishing industry over digital book pricing.  The talks come as the largest online book retailer remains locked in a months-long impasse with Hachette, owned by Frances Lagardere, over the price of e-books sold on Amazons digital shelves. We are negotiating with Amazon as we speak so I don’t want to get into too much detail about it, Les Moonves, president and chief executive officer of CBS Corp, which owns Simon and Schuster, said during Fortune’s Brainstorm Tech conference in Aspen, Colorado.
