Crossword Genius

Reporter's quote shows vision (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sight

'vision' is the definition.
(I know that vision can be written as sight)

'reporter's quote' is the wordplay.
'reporter's' shows a homophone (sound like) (report can mean to speak something aloud).
'quote' becomes 'cite' (synonyms).
'cite' sounds like 'SIGHT'.

'shows' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for sight that I've seen before include "Could be a jolly" , "Vision, ability to see" , "Spectacle; aiming aid" , "24" , "Seeing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
