Fresh information, current affairs, ultimately (4)
I believe the answer is:
news
'fresh information' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'current affairs ultimately' is the wordplay.
'current' becomes 'new' (associated in meaning).
'affairs ultimately' becomes 's' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'new'+'s'='NEWS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for news that I've seen before include "Important information" , "Noteworthy information" , "Contents of bulletin" , "Latest developments" , "Latest information" .)
