idea

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'what the thinker represents' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'some upsetting media editing' is the wordplay.
'upsetting' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'aedi' is hidden within 'media editing'.
'aedi' written backwards gives 'IDEA'.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for idea that I've seen before include "Fancy" , "Product of the mind" , "Thought or notion (4)" , "Light bulb above head" , "intellectual product" .)

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