Publicity (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hype

'publicity' is the definition.
(I know that hype is a type of publicity)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hype that I've seen before include "Sales gimmickry" , "Plug" , "Shrewd publicity" , "racket" , "Overblown publicity" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Mirror, The Telegraph and the Penny Press.
