An eye, maybe, for a newspaper story? (7)
I believe the answer is:
feature
This clue is a double definition.
'an eye maybe' is the first definition.
(the eyes are facial features)
'a newspaper story?' is the second definition.
(a newspaper feature)
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for feature that I've seen before include "Focal point" , "Principal film or non-news article" , "Special attraction" , "Magazine article" , "Newspaper article" .)
