Love speaking about lazy fabrications (7)

I believe the answer is:

idolise

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'love' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for idolise that I've seen before include "Make into a figure of worship" , "Worship to extremes" , "put on a pedestal" , "Pay excessive attention to" , "Love too much" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
