Expurgate (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

censor

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">expurgate</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for censor that I've seen before include "Official with power to prohibit distribution of material" , "use blue pencil" , "Person authorised to remove unacceptable passages" , "Bowdlerise" , "Roman magistrate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Penny Press.
