Place for public discussion (5)

I believe the answer is:

forum

(Other definitions for forum that I've seen before include "Place where public discussion is held, as in ancient Rome" , "place for debate" , "Online message board" , "Public meeting or assembly for open discussion" , "old square" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post and the Sydney Morning Herald.
