Journalists in Dorset I fancy (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

editors

'journalists' is the definition.
(an editor is a senior journalist)

'dorset i fancy' is the wordplay.
'fancy' is an anagram indicator.
'dorset'+'i'='dorseti'
'dorseti' anagrammed gives 'EDITORS'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for editors that I've seen before include "Press employees" , "Senior journalists" , "Employees on paper" , "Newspaper bosses" , "Newspaper heads" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
