Monkey writes off major daily? (3,4,5)
I believe the answer is:
new york times
'major daily?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'monkey writes off' is the wordplay.
'off' indicates anagramming the letters.
'monkey'+'writes'='monkeywrites'
'monkeywrites' anagrammed gives 'NEW YORK TIMES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for new york times that I've seen is " American daily".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
