News in brief brings furrowed brows (9)
I believe the answer is:
headlines
'furrowed brows' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'news in brief' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'in' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'brings' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for headlines that I've seen before include "Starts of newspaper articles" , "News stories" , "Newspaper features" , "Captions of newspaper articles" , "linked with furrowed brows?" .)
