Exposed to be false (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

debunked

(Other definitions for debunked that I've seen before include "Cut down to size!" , "ruined reputation?" , "Showed to be false or incorrect" , "Showed up as false or exaggerated" , "Uncovered pretentious or false claims and ideas" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
