In the know (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

aware

hipto

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">in the know</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for aware that I've seen before include "Acquainted with or conscious of" , "Acquainted with or mindful of" , "Having knowledge or realisation" , "Cognizant" , "Attentive" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the King Feature Syndicate, the Penny Press, The Star Tribune, the Newsday, the Universal, The Mirror, the LA Times, the USA Today and The Washington Post.
