Make fun of newspaper (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rag

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'make fun of' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'newspaper' is the second definition.
(rag is a kind of newspaper)

(Other definitions for rag that I've seen before include "Disreputable paper" , "Mock < paper that's poor" , "Cloth; bait" , "Duster, perhaps" , "organ?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
