Crossword Genius

As produced by porters and journalists (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reports

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

'journalists' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'as produced by porters' is the wordplay.
'porters' can be anagrammed to 'REPORTS'.
Though, I am unsure how the anagram is indicated.

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reports that I've seen before include "Sounds of gunfire" , "Accounts; bangs" , "Makes known" , "Documents describing findings" , "Short accounts of the news" .)
