Bar with legal liability finally gets promotion (9)
I believe the answer is:
publicity
'promotion' is the definition.
(I know that promotion can be written as publicity)
'bar with legal liability finally' is the wordplay.
'bar with' becomes 'pub' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'with' bit.).
'legal' becomes 'licit' (similar in meaning).
'finally' says to take the final letters.
The last letter of 'liability' is 'y'.
'pub'+'licit'+'y'='PUBLICITY'
'gets' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for publicity that I've seen before include "Marketing" , "hype" , "Promotion" , "Advertising" .)
