Young reporter embraces woman's angelic child (6)
I believe the answer is:
cherub
'angelic child' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'young reporter embraces woman's' is the wordplay.
'young reporter' becomes 'cub' (cub can mean a young journalist).
'embraces' indicates putting letters inside.
'woman's' becomes 'her' (belonging to a woman).
'cub' going around 'her' is 'CHERUB'.
(Other definitions for cherub that I've seen before include "A heavenly winged babe" , "A heavenly baby" , "A heavenly winged child" , "goody-goody?" , "High-ranking angel" .)
