stop press

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

'late news' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'jam following work on street' is the wordplay.
'jam' becomes 'press' ('press' can be a synonym of 'jam').
'following' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'work on street' becomes 'stop' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'press' after 'stop' is 'STOP-PRESS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stop press that I've seen before include "newspaper feature" , "Hold the front page!" , "Late breaking news" , "Late news item(s)" , "Latest news" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
