Propagandistic language in the highest point of recent information (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

newspeak

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'recent information' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'propagandistic language in the highest point' is the wordplay.
'propagandistic language in' becomes 'news' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'the highest point' becomes 'peak' (I've seen this in another clue).
'news'+'peak'='NEWSPEAK'

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for newspeak that I've seen before include "tongue used to spin?" , "Propaganda language in nineteen eighty-four" , "language of politicians, perhaps" , "Orwell's nineteen eighty four language" , "Language of 1984 (Orwell)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
