Fundamental belief (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tenet

'fundamental belief' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tenet that I've seen before include "Doctrine; principle held" , "A belief or credo - it's a palindrome" , "you may believe in it" , "Article of faith; doctrine" , "Key principle" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The Chronicle of Higher Education, the New York Times, The Guardian, the Universal, the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday.com and The Washington Post.
