Question

Rumor has it that more than 20 books on creationism/evolution are in the publisher's pipelines.
主要是rumor has it看不懂.难道是固定搭配?
这是一个考研题目。我困惑的是sth.have it that 这种句型（如果这是句型的话）。是倒装还是什么？

Answer 1

很地道的英式表达,rumor应该是报纸媒体,
rumor has it that.=it is reported by rumor that
rumor有报道称
这句话等同于
as the rumor says that.
正如谣言报所说.
