The Daily Buffoon

Real news, scored by clowns

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

The Daily Buffoon reports the news exactly as it happened — real headlines, no punchlines added. The editorializing is left entirely to the house band: every story is scored with a tune that grows sillier as the absurdity climbs, from one clown to five. Includes the live wire, signed op-eds from the editorial desk, the Morgue — three months of searchable back issues — the Buffoonery Digest, a jukebox of over ninety tunes, and an absurdity filter for readers with a weak constitution.

The Daily Buffoon 1.2 — the “Truths” desk opens. • “TRUTHS”: a new chip between White House and Culture. The desk clips the President's Truth Social posts verbatim — caps and all — mounts each one above the story it made, and folds the repeats (a REPEATS FOLDED tag counts how many times it was posted). • THE CLOWN ROW gets faces. The rating row now draws the house troupe, and when a story names one of the cast — the cabinet, congressional leadership, a couple of heads of state — it's their clown that fills the row, repeated by rating. • Apple Watch: the “Truths” clippings ride the watch feed too, in a compact clip. • New art for several of the troupe. Real headlines, no punchlines added. The band does the editorializing.
