Malign, defame (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vilify

I believe this is a double definition.

'malign' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'defame' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for vilify that I've seen before include "Abuse - defame" , "Malign or defame" , "Spread negative information about" , "rubbish" , "Abusively disparage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
