Definition
Associated with or characterized by the presence of cronies; influenced by favoritism toward close friends or associates.
Etymology
Derived from cronie/crony plus the adjective-forming suffix '-ed,' creating an adjective to describe situations or systems influenced by crony relationships.
Kelly Says
When people say a government or business is 'cronied,' they're describing a system where friendships trump qualifications—it's become a shorthand criticism for corruption through favoritism, a problem that likely existed as long as friendship has existed.
