Special Report By The Wasted Onion: Earth Appoints Wasted Onion Owner Clef Bozos As CEO In Sale To The Wasted Company
GLASGOW, SCOTLAND—Explaining that the multibillion-dollar purchase was a strategic and sound business decision, Wasted Onion parent company The Wasted Company confirmed Sunday that it had acquired Earth, with Clef Bozos becoming the planet’s new CEO. “We are thrilled to announce that Earths board of directors have approved The Wasted Company’s bid to acquire their rapidly warming business,” said the business magnate at a press conference outside The Wasted Company’s Glasgow manual labour camp. “We here at The Wasted Company and its subsidiaries like The Wasted Onion, Fyre Festival and Theranos have always been committed to the destruction of everything that is good in this mortal plane, and we are delighted to be able to extend this ethos to Earth.” Mr. Bozos announced that Wasted Company staffers had already begun immediate layoffs by slitting the throats of workers and throwing them in a ditch as well as replacing the social media manager of the @EarthDevs wasteof account with an AI that according to reports had replied to several users to “stop hogging all the goddamn oxygen.” Bozos concluded the media event by reassuring that The Wasted Onion would remain fiercely under his authoritarian-like thumb in its reporting of his acquisition of Earth.
We are proud to announce that Earth© has a new CEO, who has provided the company with funding to continue the simulation well into the future! 
As well as providing the money to keep you all alive, our new CEO is also making the company more self sustainable. Think of it as going from a big study to a new company.
These changes include (but are not limited to) new advertisements in the game from the real world, downsizing of the company to be more resource efficient, and more that are all covered in our new terms of service which you have automatically agreed to.
Sadly, this means that I, the account manager, have been let go of to continue the adventure of life elsewhere, but fear not! The Company is actively working on a new replacement.
Happy travels, Earthlings

By The Wasted Onion: Trump Announces 350% Tariff On All Oxygen-Breathing Taking Place Outside U.S.
WASHINGTON—In a shocking escalation of his continuing trade war with nations across the globe, President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he was imposing a 350% tariff on all foreign oxygen breathing. “The American breathing industry is facing a very fast death. Other countries taking our oxygen are doing so without paying us a dime. This is a concerted effort by other nations to take American oxygen for themselves and therefore is a national security threat,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post, stating that the new oxygen intake tariffs would be imposed with immediate effect. “I am authorizing the Department of Commerce and the United States Trade Representative to immediately begin instituting a 350% tariff on any and all oxygen breathing outside our great nation.” Trump went on to say to reporters outside the south lawn of the White House that the fresh tariffs are “magnificent” and would “make oxygen great again!” At press time, the new tariffs have reportedly already cost countries worldwide roughly 690 quadrillion dollars, with penguins inhabiting Heard Island and McDonald Islands, who were also hit with the new tariffs, threatening to melt icecaps which would send the U.S. mainland underwater.
