Made news when stitched up? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sewn

'stitched up?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'made news' is the wordplay.
'made' indicates anagramming the letters.
'news' anagrammed gives 'SEWN'.

'when' is the link.

(Other definitions for sewn that I've seen before include "joined together" , "Run up" , "Joined with stitches" , "Made as garment" , "Attached with needle and thread" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
