Crossword Genius

Article from newspaper, possibly, sharp (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cutting

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'article from newspaper possibly' is the first definition.
(newspaper cutting)

'sharp' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for cutting that I've seen before include "piece used for plant propagation" , "Barbed" , "(Of a remark) hurtful" , "piece taken from newspaper" , "Incisive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
