Starved in order to get publicity (7)
I believe the answer is:
adverts
'get publicity' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'starved in order' is the wordplay.
'in order' is an anagram indicator (the letters in a new order).
'starved' is an anagram of 'ADVERTS'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for adverts that I've seen before include "Refers or alludes to" , "Commercials" , "Makes reference" .)
