Move To Television
Partly as a result of that story, 21-year-old Jason was offered a job at Australia's Seven Network in Sydney where he worked between 1983 and 1985 as an on-air reporter for Seven News and its nightly current affairs show.
In 1987, Jason left Australia to base himself in London. After freelancing as a producer/reporter for Reuters TV, BBC TV and Australia’s SBS-TV, Jason became a sports producer and reporter for European satellite network Sky News in January 1989 before it launched in Britain. A year later at Sky, he gained his first experience in the studio, as a weekend sports presenter.

Famous quotes containing the words move and/or television:
“If I cannot prevail upon heaven, I shall move hell.”
—Virgil [Publius Vergilius Maro] (70–19 B.C.)
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
