Ride to work with top journalist (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

editor

'top journalist' is the definition.
(person in charge of a newspaper)

'ride to work' is the wordplay.
'work' indicates anagramming the letters.
'ride'+'to'='rideto'
'rideto' with letters rearranged gives 'EDITOR'.

'with' is the link.

(Other definitions for editor that I've seen before include "Newsman" , "Times boss maybe" , "Journalist in charge of publication" , "Redactor" , "One is in charge of publication" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
