Pried into journo's editorial (5)
I believe the answer is:
nosed
'pried' is the definition.
('nose' can be a synonym of 'pry')
'into journo's editorial' is the wordplay.
'into' indicates a hidden word.
'NOSED' is hidden in the letters of 'journos editorial'.
(Other definitions for nosed that I've seen before include "Moved slowly upwards" , "Scented" , "proceeded gingerly" , "Eased" , "See 1 Across" .)
