The Daily Bugle is a fictional New York City newspaper that is a regular fixture in the Marvel Universe, most prominently in Spider-Man and its derivative media. The company first appeared in Fantastic Four vol. 1 #2.

History

Fictional staff members

Limited series

Alternate versions
In the Marvel 1602 setting, Jameson is publisher of the first "news-sheet" in the New World; the Daily Trumpet.

1602
In the Amalgam Comics universe, the Daily Bugle is a sleazy tabloid, and JJ Jameson tries get photos which depict Spider-Boy as being romantically linked to female heroes, like Insect Queen, as well as other sensationalist stories. Pete Ross (Spider-Boy) works there as a photographer. Other staff members include Tana Moon and Jack Ryder. There is also a Gotham Bugle, run by J. Jonah White, which employs red-headed, chain-smoking Jimmy Urich.

House Of M
Coincidentally, the Daily Bugle was also the newspaper where Micky Moran, alter-ego of Marvelman, worked as a copyboy in the original 1950s issues (also featuring as a publication that gave Moran freelance work in Alan Moore's 1980s revival).
The Daily Bugle also appears in The Basil Brish show on British television, most probably as a reference to Spider-Man.

Others
In the Ultimate Marvel universe, the Bugle is much the same as in the 616 version. The main difference is that Peter Parker is not employed as a photographer, but works on the newspaper's website after Jameson sees him assist with a problem. The newspaper plays less of a role in Ultimate Spider-Man than it did in the comics portraying the equivalent period of the 616 Spider-Man's career.

Ultimate Marvel
Since 2006, Marvel has published a monthly Daily Bugle newspaper reporting on the company's publications and their authors. The newspaper format first appeared, reporting on event storylines as if it was the Daily Bugle within Marvel's comics continuities, to promote Marvel's crossover events Civil War and House of M; this function was restored for the 2007 death of Captain America.

Other media

The Bugle is seen in most media adaptations of Spider-Man, the most prominent appearance being in the 2002 Spider-Man film and its sequels. In the movies, the Bugle is housed in the Flatiron Building (as it does in the Marvels miniseries by Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross). One Bugle employee who appears exclusively in the films is Hoffman, who serves as comic relief and is frequently harassed by Jameson. Hoffman is played by Ted Raimi, who is the brother of Sam Raimi, the director of the Spider-Man film series. In Spider-Man 3, Eddie Brock (played by Topher Grace) is a photographer employed by the Bugle. In the comics, Eddie worked for the rival Daily Globe.
In Frank Darabont's Academy Award nominated film, The Shawshank Redemption, Andy Dufresne, played by Tim Robbins sends a package to "the Portland Daily Bugle" containing the information about the Shawshank warden's illegal money laundering operations.
Reporter Christine Everhart will appear in the Iron Man film, most likely representing the Daily Bugle. Television

In the arcade and console-imported game Marvel Super Heroes the Bugle is Spider-Man's stage. The fighting takes place on a platform that is first going vertical and then across the Daily Bugle.
In the multi-platform video game Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects the Daily Bugle is a recurring battleground throughout the story mode and available in the versus mode. Here the rooftop is surrounded by three destructible walls, and covered with explosive barrels, air conditioners, pipes, and poles for use in battle. Even the trademark letters that form "Daily Bugle" are available for throwing at enemies once damaged.
In the Ghost Rider videogame released in 2007, The Daily Bugle appears in the challenge mode of the game. It even has big spiderwebs in the corners, which is an obvious reference to Spider-Man.
The Daily Bugle is featured in many of the Spider-Man games.
