Squeeze; papers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

press

I believe this is a double definition.

'squeeze' is the first definition.
(I know that squeeze can be written as press)

'papers' is the second definition.
(the newspaper industry)

(Other definitions for press that I've seen before include "Urgency" , "needed to avoid crooked racket" , "somewhere to keep clothes" , "Exert force on (something)" , "Journalists - crowd" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
