Crossword Genius

Shouted or read about (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

roared

'shouted' is the definition.
(roaring is a kind of shouting)

'or read about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'or'+'read'='orread'
'orread' anagrammed gives 'ROARED'.

(Other definitions for roared that I've seen before include "Bellowed, thundered" , "Yelled" , "Made long loud sound like lion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
