Run a sham editorial, somewhat brazen (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unashamed

'brazen' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'run a sham editorial somewhat' is the wordplay.
'somewhat' indicates a hidden word.
'UNASHAMED' is hidden within 'run a sham editorial'.

(Other definitions for unashamed that I've seen before include "not apologetic" , "Blatant" , "Brazen" , "Not embarrassed" , "Unabashed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
