Shockingly sensational (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lurid

'shockingly sensational' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lurid that I've seen before include "Glaringly bright" , "Sensational; colourful" , "Horrifying - sensational" , "Unpleasantly vivid in colour" , "Bright and garish" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
