newspaper

'daily' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'points from all sides apparently taken literally' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'points' could be 'ws' (W is an example) and 'ws' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for newspaper that I've seen before include "Broadsheet, e.g." , "Eg, The Times" , "part of the media" , "printed edition" , "Daily or weekly publication, keeps us abreast" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
