Like to hear about America's leader? Wrong (6)
I believe the answer is:
astray
'wrong' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'like to hear about america's leader?' is the wordplay.
'like' becomes 'as'.
'to hear' becomes 'try' ('try' can be a synonym of 'hear').
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'leader?' indicates taking the first letters (I've seen 'leader' mean this).
The initial letter of 'americas' is 'a'.
'try' going around 'a' is 'tray'.
'as'+'tray'='ASTRAY'
(Other definitions for astray that I've seen before include "Go . . . . . . - get lost" , "Wandering, off course" , "in the wrong place" , "Off the correct path" , "Wandering off the path" .)
