Carole's making announcements (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oracles

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

'announcements' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'carole's making' is the wordplay.
'making' is an anagram indicator.
'caroles' anagrammed gives 'ORACLES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oracles that I've seen before include "Solacer for wise or knowledgeable people" , "Places where ancient Greek consulted their gods" , "Prophetic authorities" , "They were consulted by ancient Greeks" , "mysterious utterances" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Globe and Mail.
