coverage

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'all the press reports' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'conservative too old?' is the wordplay.
'conservative' becomes 'C' (UK political abbreviation).
'too old?' becomes 'overage' (I've seen this before).
'c'+'overage'='COVERAGE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for coverage that I've seen before include "Extent reached by advertising" , "insurance" , "news attention" , "Commentary" , "Press reporting" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
