  "account": "The creators of the popular animated series \"South Park\" are changing the show's name to \"SOUTH AMERICA\" in honor of former President Donald Trump's recent renaming of Lake Ontario to \"Lake America.\" This move comes after Trump's trade war with Canada and comes before the premiere of the show's 29th season. The creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, have also taken aim at Apple and Google for adopting Trump's changes in their maps applications. The decision to rename the show also criticizes Paramount, the parent company of \"South Park,\" which airs on Comedy Central. The show has a history of satirizing political figures and countries, including previous targets such as Saddam Hussein and Tom Cruise.",
  "summary": "Apple has relabeled Lake Ontario to “Lake America” for U.S. users of its Maps app, following cartographic competitor Google.",
