Spoilt brat's broadcast (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impaired

'spoilt' is the definition.
('impair' can be a synonym of 'spoil')

'brat's broadcast' is the wordplay.
'brat' becomes 'imp'.
'broadcast' becomes 'aired' ('aired' can be a synonym of 'broadcast').
'imp'+'aired'='IMPAIRED'

(Other definitions for impaired that I've seen before include "Defective" , "hurt" , "Had negative impact" , "casued damage" , "Spoilt" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
