Hateful criticism (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vitriol

'hateful criticism' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for vitriol that I've seen before include "hostile criticism" , "Scathing criticism - sulphuric acid" , "Bitter words" , "Venomous language and an acid" , "Sulphuric acid or savage comment" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Telegraph and The Guardian.
