I believe the answer is:

evening standard

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'paper' is the definition.

'getting flush with usual' is the wordplay.
'getting flush with' becomes 'evening' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'usual' becomes 'standard' (synonyms).
'evening'+'standard'='EVENING STANDARD'

Can you help me to learn more?
