Shout out to make a point (5)
I believe the answer is:
south
'a point' is the definition.
(I know that south is a type of cardinal compass point)
'shout out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'shout' is an anagram of 'SOUTH'.
'to make' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for south that I've seen before include "Down on a map" , "1949 musical by Rodgers and Hammerstein, made into a film in 1958" , "Direction to the right of sunrise" , "Compass point" , "Antarctica" .)
