Rebuked formally (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

censured

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

(Other definitions for censured that I've seen before include "Rebuked formally" , "Reproached or criticised" , "Strongly criticised or condemned" , "Blamed and strongly rebuked" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Irish Times.
