Help for presenter in traffic jam, we hear? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

autocue

'help for presenter' is the definition.
(device giving a TV presenter their lines)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for autocue that I've seen before include "Speaker's prompt device" , "TV presenting aid" , "Newsreader's aid" , "Hidden screen showing the script to a speaker" , "TV prompt device" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
