Nothing right about fake news? That's more than fair (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lovelier

'more than fair' is the definition.
(fair can mean lovely or beautiful)

'nothing right about fake news?' is the wordplay.
'nothing' becomes 'love' (love means zero in tennis).
'right' becomes 'R' (common abbreviation).
'about' says to put letters next to each other.
'fake news?' becomes 'lie'.
'r' put after 'lie' is 'lier'.
'love'+'lier'='LOVELIER'

'that's' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
