BBC and CNN Jobs
At the end of 1994, Jason biggest break came when, as a freelance producer and occasional presenter for BBC World Service Television in London, he was promoted to senior sports anchor on BBC World. It made him the first Australian newsreader on the re-launched, global news network as part of ‘Newsday’, a breakfast show for Europe.
After three years in London with the BBC, Jason moved to the U.S. in mid-1997. After working as a freelance reporter for BBC World Service and Denver local station, KUSA-TV 9-News (NBC), Jason re-located to Atlanta in early 1999 to take up a job at CNN International. He was initially a news producer/writer, but in May 1999, Jason became the first Australian sports anchor on CNN International's World Sport, broadcasting daily to more than 200 countries, often in partnership with Pedro Pinto.
