Smut (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

filth

'smut' is the definition.
(I know that smut can be written as filth)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for filth that I've seen before include "Muck" , "Dirt, obscene talk" , "Disgusting dirt or obscenity" , "Squalor" , "Real dirt or obscenity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal and The Mirror.
