Inert crow unsettled announcer (9)
I believe the answer is:
towncrier
'announcer' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'inert crow unsettled' is the wordplay.
'unsettled' indicates anagramming the letters.
'inert'+'crow'='inertcrow'
'inertcrow' is an anagram of 'TOWNCRIER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for towncrier that I've seen is " Person employed to make public announcements".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
