   In 2009, he also earned regional Emmy® awards for Most Outstanding Sports Anchor and Most Outstanding Sports Reporter. He is believed to be the first person ever to win both awards in the same year.

   He also won a 2007 Emmy® award for Most Outstanding Sports Anchor in the Mid-Atlantic region, which includes the entire state of Pennsylvania (all markets) and parts of New Jersey, Delaware and Ohio. In all, he has received ten Emmy® nominations in three years for both anchoring and reporting.

   Bristol has also received numerous first-place awards from the Pennsylvania Associated Press Broadcasters Association (AP) for Enterprise/Individual Reporting; Continuing Coverage; and Best Sports Feature Story.

   Bristol previously worked in Buffalo, New York, where he was one of the main anchors at the Empire Sports Network. While in Buffalo, Bristol anchored the early weeknight editions of the "Empire Sports Report," the network’s half-hour news and highlight program. He also served as beat reporter for the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres and the Buffalo Bisons’ Triple-A baseball club. He says his favorite memory is presenting the 2004 Governors’ Cup trophy to the Bisons after the team won the postseason championship - and then being doused with champagne during a live post-game show!

   Prior to his stint at ESN, Jason worked at WSTM-TV in Syracuse where he had many different roles; including sports director, weekend sports anchor, news anchor, and news reporter.

   His career began as a weekend sports anchor at WDTV in Bridgeport, West Virginia. Six months later, he moved back to Central New York to work as a sports reporter and producer at WTVH. Bristol then joined WSTM in March 1998.
