Aspersion (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slur

'aspersion' is the definition.
(I know that aspersion can be written as slur)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for slur that I've seen before include "Slight - incoherence in speech" , "making indistinct sound" , "Disparage" , "Negative comment" , "Slight - drawl" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Telegraph, the Evening Standard and The Sun.
