Features expert in newspaper beginning to suffer (6)
I believe the answer is:
facets
'features' is the definition.
(facet is a kind of feature)
'expert in newspaper beginning to suffer' is the wordplay.
'expert' becomes 'ace' (ace is a kind of expert**).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'newspaper' becomes 'ft'.
'beginning to' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'suffer' is 's'.
'ace' inserted into 'ft' is 'facet'.
'facet'+'s'='FACETS'
(Other definitions for facets that I've seen before include "Sides or surfaces" , "Surfaces or aspects" , "Faces of cut gemstones" , "Surfaces of a cut gem" , "Sides or aspects, diamonds or buildings" .)
