Find out whether there is any grammatical error in below sentence.
Many times the news has been published / in the papers that the end of the world will be certain / if a nuclear war breaks out.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
The phrase "the news" is correct here because it refers to specific reported information, not news in general.

"News" is an uncountable noun, but it can correctly take the definite article "the" when referring to something specific that has been reported or published.

The structure "the news has been published in the papers" is grammatically correct and commonly used in formal English.

The rest of the sentence — "that the end of the world will be certain if a nuclear war breaks out" — is also grammatically sound.

Hence, there is no grammatical error in the sentence.
