Emaciated-looking broadcaster hosting international news (6)
I believe the answer is:
skinny
'emaciated' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'looking broadcaster hosting international news' is the wordplay.
'looking broadcaster' becomes 'sky' (Sky is a television company. I am not sure about the 'looking' bit.).
'hosting' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters are welcomed in or hosted).
'international' becomes 'i' (abbreviation eg in IMF).
'news' becomes 'nn' (n is common abbrev for new, news can be plural).
'i'+'nn'='inn'
'sky' going around 'inn' is 'SKINNY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for skinny that I've seen before include "Very slim" , "Type of dip" , "Of person, very thin" , "Tight-fitting" , "far from stout!" .)
