Exclusive news story (5)
I believe the answer is:
scoop
'exclusive news story' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for scoop that I've seen before include "Hot story" , "Haul" , "Kind of ladle or shovel-like tool - reporters seek it" , "Waugh novel; some ice-cream" , "Exclusive report" .)
