Subordinate in journalists' association brought up bigotry regularly (6)
I believe the answer is:
junior
'subordinate' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'journalists' association brought up bigotry regularly' is the wordplay.
'journalists' association' becomes 'nuj' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'brought up' says the letters should be written in reverse (in a down clue, letters go up).
'regularly' indicates alternate letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
The alternating letters of 'bigotry' are 'ior'.
'nuj' back-to-front is 'jun'.
'jun'+'ior'='JUNIOR'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for junior that I've seen before include "Lower in rank, son" , "Younger - subordinate" , "Lesser in age or job" , "Inferior in rank, son" , "Younger or lower in rank" .)
