Ok, so if you said “We’re reading newspaper” it would be weird. That might mean that you’re reading a mass of newspaper, like you’d papered the walls with newspaper.
This sentence needs an article (a or the) because it’s a countable noun. (NB If the word were something uncountable, like water, then it might not need always the article.)
If you’re asking why the sentence isn’t “We’re reading newspapers” or “We’re reading a newspaper”, then I agree that you should submit it as a correct answer.
