Journalist taking part in foxtrot I deliberately knocked over (6)
I believe the answer is:
editor
'journalist' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'part in foxtrot i deliberately knocked over' is the wordplay.
'part in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'knocked over' is a reversal indicator.
'rotide' can be found hidden inside 'foxtrot i deliberately'.
'rotide' back-to-front is 'EDITOR'.
'taking' is the link.
(Other definitions for editor that I've seen before include "Senior publisher" , "Director of newspaper" , "Press fellow" , "Person who revises and prepares for publication" , "Redo it and become head of publication" .)
