A journalist, influencer, or media figure in Mexico who gets paid to publish favorable content for politicians or corporations. The name comes from the chayote vegetable, historically used as a symbolic low-value payment to minor corrupt journalists. Today "chayote" and "chayotiado" describe any bought editorial coverage.
“Ese periodista es un chayote, todo lo que escribe está pagado.”
“That journalist is completely on the payroll, everything he writes is bought and paid for.”
“El gobierno tiene a toda la prensa chayotiada.”
“The government has the entire press corps in their pocket.”
