Nowadays, timely journalist moved with the times (7)
I believe the answer is:
adapted
'moved with the times' is the definition.
'nowadays timely journalist' is the wordplay.
'nowadays' becomes 'AD' (AD, Anno Domini, as opposed to BC, Before Christ).
'timely' becomes 'apt' (I've seen this in another clue).
'journalist' becomes 'ed' (short for editor).
'ad'+'apt'+'ed'='ADAPTED'
(Other definitions for adapted that I've seen before include "Adjusted to new conditions" , "Altered" , "Changed for a particular purpose" , "Date-pad (anag.)" , "Became adjusted" .)
