These press releases were all written on or around April 1st and never submitted. The person who wrote them either got fired or promoted and a new person took over the PR position. They found these old unreleased press releases and decided to submit them, with his or her name on top. Saving himself or herself a lot of work, not realizing they were old April Fool jokes that didn’t get used.

This honestly makes a hell of a lot more sense than a Monopoly or Battleship film.
