Crossword Genius

Spoilt devil given broadcast (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impaired

'spoilt' is the definition.
('impair' can be a synonym of 'spoil')

'devil given broadcast' is the wordplay.
'devil' becomes 'imp' (I've seen this before).
'given' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'broadcast' becomes 'aired' ('aired' can be a synonym of 'broadcast').
'imp'+'aired'='IMPAIRED'

(Other definitions for impaired that I've seen before include "Damaged, marred" , "handicapped" , "Caused weakening, damaged" , "hurt" , "Defective" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
