Planet hater gets confused (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

earth

'planet' is the definition.
(Earth is an example)

'hater gets confused' is the wordplay.
'gets confused' is an anagram indicator.
'hater' with letters rearranged gives 'EARTH'.

(Other definitions for earth that I've seen before include "brownish pigment?" , "Ground - globe - soil" , "Our favourite planet" , "electrical safety precaution" , "Third rock from the Sun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
