Times editor has debts? Boring! (7)
I believe the answer is:
tedious
'boring' is the definition.
(I know that boring can be written as tedious)
'times editor has debts?' is the wordplay.
'times' becomes 't' (this could be a standard abbreviation which I don't know about).
'editor' becomes 'ed' (abbreviation).
'has' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'debts?' becomes 'IOUs' (promises to pay debts).
't'+'ed'+'ious'='TEDIOUS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tedious that I've seen before include "Dull as ditchwater" , "Long, slow, dull" , "awfully boring" , "not worth listening to?" , "Wearisome, boring" .)
