Loaded question about dubious tale (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wealthy

'loaded' is the definition.
(I know that loaded can be written as wealthy)

'question about dubious tale' is the wordplay.
'question' becomes 'why' (I've seen this before).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'dubious' indicates an anagram.
'tale' with letters rearranged gives 'ealt'.
'why' placed around 'ealt' is 'WEALTHY'.

(Other definitions for wealthy that I've seen before include "Rich and prosperous" , "Affluent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
