Iffy messages coming from shore, and received by commander (10)
I believe the answer is:
propaganda
'iffy messages' is the definition.
'propaganda' can be an answer for 'messages' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'iffy' bit.
'shore and received by commander' is the wordplay.
'shore' becomes 'prop' (I've seen this in another clue).
'received by' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'commander' becomes 'aga' (I've seen this before).
'and' put within 'aga' is 'aganda'.
'prop'+'aganda'='PROPAGANDA'
'coming from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for propaganda that I've seen before include "Hype" , "PR" , "publicity material" , "messages" , "Organised spreading of information or rumour" .)
