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

'relatively speaking hep news is going around' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'hep news is going around' is the wordplay.
'is going around' indicates anagramming the letters.
'hep'+'news'='hepnews'
'hepnews' anagrammed gives 'NEPHEWS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nephews that I've seen before include "Kinsmen" , "Male relatives" , "Male kin" .)
