Fiery blog posts crossword clue

6 Down · WSJ Crossword, May 8, 2026 · 5 letters

Answer
RANTS
RANTS (5 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Fiery blog posts” is RANTS. It appears as 6 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 8, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Before the Second Half” by Patrick Berry, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 7 of the 15×15 grid.

A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with R and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 4 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
