Jason Jackson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jason Jackson (born May 12, 1972) was a sportscaster and writer for ESPN from 1995 until 2002, best known as the host of NBA 2Night. Jackson was fired from ESPN in 2002 for allegedly making comments in e-mails to colleagues that had sexual overtones and were deemed inappropriate.[1]
In 2003, he hosted his own sports talk radio show in Hartford, CT called The Jax Show. He currently works as a broadcaster for the Miami Heat.
Kelly Dwyer of SI.com wrote in his 2006 "NBA Announcers Report Card" that Jason Jackson might be the best side-line reporter in the business.
He graduated from Bowling Green State University in 1994, where he had served as a resident advisor at Bromfield Hall.
