Commandeer the papers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

press

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'commandeer' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'papers' is the second definition.
(the newspaper industry)

'the' is the link.

(Other definitions for press that I've seen before include "Apply steady force to (something)" , "Squeeze out (juice/oil)" , "Put creases in" , "that may gather when news is expected" , "Newspapers - cupboard" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
