The Daily Bonnet is a satirical Mennonite website, known as The Unger Review as of 2023.^[2] It was created by Andrew Unger and launched in May 2016.^[3]^[4] It features news stories and editorials, with the structure of conventional newspapers, but whose content is contorted to make humorous commentary on Mennonite and Anabaptist issues.^[5]^[6]^[7]

The Daily Bonnet has been cited in the Manitoba Legislature^[8] and used as an example of Mennonite humour in the Canadian House of Commons in support of a bill to create a Mennonite Heritage Week.^[9]^[10]^[11] A number of viral posts including "Mennonite Biker Gangs Clash with Hells Angels at Sturgis" and "Canada Pays Off Entire Federal Debt One Day After Marijuana Legalization" were fact-checked and listed as "satire" by Snopes and Politifact.^[12]^[13]^[14] The site has been visited by millions of people every year since its inception.^[15]

In 2021, a collection of Unger's Daily Bonnet articles called The Best of the Bonnet was released by Turnstone Press.^[16]

In 2023, Unger renamed the website The Unger Review,^[17] with The Daily Bonnet becoming a section of that website.^[18]^[19]
