The explosive results of press accounts (7)
I believe the answer is:
reports
'accounts' is the definition.
(I know this)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reports that I've seen before include "Accounts; bangs" , "Short accounts of the news" , "Gives account" , "Makes known" , "Statements" .)
