It's news put out for the viewer (7)
I believe the answer is:
witness
'the viewer' is the definition.
('witness' can be a synonym of 'viewer')
'it's news put out' is the wordplay.
'put out' indicates anagramming the letters.
'its'+'news'='itsnews'
'itsnews' anagrammed gives 'WITNESS'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for witness that I've seen before include "Testimony - see" , "Evidence, proof" , "Attest" , "Observer" , "Court testifier" .)
