Exposed as a lie; tacked (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nailed

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'exposed as a lie' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'tacked' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for nailed that I've seen before include "Fixed with a pin" , "not allowed to escape?" , "Fixed with metal spikes" , "Fastened with spike" , "Fixed - caught" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
