Works for newspaper reporting to some who are civil? (6)
I believe the answer is:
rights
'works' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rights that I've seen before include "Entitlements and fair claims" , "Privileges one is entitled to" , "They should balance responsibilities" , "Legal entitlemants" , "Corrects" .)
