Newspaper proprietor bringing daughter in for a drink (9)
I believe the answer is:
sundowner
'for a drink' is the definition.
(sundowner is a kind of drink)
'newspaper proprietor bringing daughter in' is the wordplay.
'newspaper' becomes 'sun' (UK newspaper The Sun).
'proprietor' becomes 'owner' (synonyms).
'bringing' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'sun'+'owner'='sunowner'
'sunowner' placed around 'd' is 'SUNDOWNER'.
(Other definitions for sundowner that I've seen before include "Tramp (Australian) - drink (British)" , "Victorian tramp?" , "drink after work?" , "Drink taken at the end of the day" , "Evening drink" .)
