Bias of journalists probed by legal team (10)
I believe the answer is:
prepossess
'bias' is the definition.
(I know that bias is a more specific form of the action prepossess)
'journalists probed by legal team' is the wordplay.
'journalists' becomes 'press' (the press can mean the newspaper industry).
'probed by' is an insertion indicator (probe can mean to poke into something).
'legal team' becomes 'posse' (I've seen this before).
'press' enclosing 'posse' is 'PREPOSSESS'.
'of' is the link.
(Other definitions for prepossess that I've seen before include "Bias favourably" , "Influence" .)
