Bad news about Ed, in Scandinavia (6)
I believe the answer is:
sweden
'scandinavia' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'bad news about ed' is the wordplay.
'bad' indicates anagramming the letters.
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'news' with letters rearranged gives 'swen'.
'swen' enclosing 'ed' is 'SWEDEN'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sweden that I've seen before include "ditto" , "We send out to the northern state" , "Nordic country" , "Scandinavian kingdom" , "North European country" .)
