Shock with content of fascist unorthodoxy (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stun

'shock' is the definition.
('stun' can be a synonym of 'shock')

'content of fascist unorthodoxy' is the wordplay.
'content of' indicates a hidden word.
'STUN' can be found hidden inside 'fascist unorthodoxy'.

'with' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for stun that I've seen before include "Numb with nuts" , "Daze, scatter senses" , "Knock out temporarily" , "Nuts (anag)" , "Confound" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times and the Irish Times (Crosaire).
