Stolen radio permits pap to be broadcast
I believe the answer is:
misappropriated
'stolen' is the definition.
(misappropriating is a kind of stealing)
'radio permits pap to be broadcast' is the wordplay.
'to be broadcast' indicates anagramming the letters (letters scattered or cast around).
'radio'+'permits'+'pap'='radiopermitspap'
'radiopermitspap' is an anagram of 'MISAPPROPRIATED'.
(Other definitions for misappropriated that I've seen before include "pinched" , "Stole" , "What embezzler did" .)
