Kitchen utensil provides an exclusive story (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scoop

This clue is a double definition.

'kitchen utensil' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'an exclusive story' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'provides' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for scoop that I've seen before include "bail" , "Dredge up" , "Small shovel for serving ice-cream" , "Exclusive newspaper story" , "Find utensil" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
