The correct option is (D) News

News is the only plural noun here that always takes a singular verb; news is an uncountable noun and is followed by a singular verb.

Electronics, politics, and ethics can take the plural verbs as well.
Examples:
Electronics are hurting our environment.
American politics are radicalizing.(Top article in
Washington Post today)
Business ethics are imperative for the society.
