In order to ignore Ron working in journalism (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

editor

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

'journalism' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'in order to ignore ron working' is the wordplay.
'ignore' is a deletion indicator.
'working' is an anagram indicator.
'in'+'order'+'to'='inorderto'
'inorderto' with 'ron' removed is 'iderto'.
'iderto' anagrammed gives 'EDITOR'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for editor that I've seen before include "Rag worker" , "Newsman" , "one in charge of 10 [PRESS GANG] ?" , "Times boss maybe" , "Do tire out the press person" .)
