Guided in the wrong direction (6)

I believe the answer is:

misled

(Other definitions for misled that I've seen before include "Cause someone to go in the wrong direction" , "Given the wrong impression" , "was given wrong advice" , "Given the wrong idea" , "Sent in the wrong direction or deceived" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
