Newspaper piece about support artist raised (8)
I believe the answer is:
guardian
'newspaper' is the definition.
(British newspaper)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for guardian that I've seen before include "One in loco parentis" , "Defender, protector" , "Type of angel" , "Daily newspaper" , "Paper, protector" .)
