Debate side crossword clue
16 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 14, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Debate side” is PRO. It appears as 16 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 14, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Simply Dashing” by Grant Conley, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 2, column 13 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with P and ends with O, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
