Could this influencer create corrupt hoax? (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
spin doctor
'could this influencer' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'create corrupt hoax?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'create' could be 'do' (doing is a kind of creating) and 'do' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spin doctor that I've seen before include "Government communicator" , "spokesperson" , "Massager of news etc" , "Public relations expert" , "Supposed PR expert" .)
