'journo' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'fresh chap receiving second' is the wordplay.
'fresh' becomes 'new' (synonyms).
'chap' becomes 'man' (chap can mean a man).
'receiving' is an insertion indicator.
'second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'new'+'man'='newman'
'newman' placed around 's' is 'NEWSMAN'.

Can you help me to learn more?
