"Certamente i grandi giornali non lo scrivono."

[Leenit3]

I thought "major" would the normal adjective used to describe newpapers.

[peter2108]

Does this have an idiomatic meaning that the big papers do not carry the story or somesuch? Otherwise what does it men?

[ElHeim]

Nah, looks just like a sentence out of context.

[JohnAdomaitis]

"write about it" sounds better in English.

[malcolmissimo]

Then the Italian should be ... ne scrivono - di lo becomes ne.

[puppybane]

Yeah, the use of the present tense in Duolingo often seems "off". The sentence is perfectly grammatical, but without the context, it sounds strange. I often think it would be better if they just stuck with the present continuous form, rather than the simple present. "are not writing it" makes the sentence less of a general statement, while also making it more generally applicable.

Also, I forget, is there a different way to say "write about <something>"?

[roman2095]

Just scrivere di.... would do.

[bill_oneill51]

"large newspapers" should also be accepted

[jytou]

Conspirationist Duo... :p

I agree "major" would be better than big - and also "write about it" or "print" is more what you would say. This is not an English sentence semantically speaking.
