Jesse Pagan Career
Jesse is a two-time Edward R. Murrow Award winner and has received plaudits from the Associated Press during his six-year career. Jesse worked as an anchor and investigative reporter at WSYX-TV in Columbus, Ohio, before joining NEWS 8. Jesse’s reporting prompted state-wide policy changes in the unemployment system, which came under intense scrutiny from Ohioans as the COVID-19 pandemic displaced a record number of workers.
Jesse’s reporting focuses on the community; for example, he helped a mother of five find housing after being duped out of thousands of dollars in a rental scam scheme, and he helped ensure that the father of a differently-abled high schooler received hundreds of dollars in state food assistance after statewide enrollment rolls were submitted without their information.
Jesse worked as a reporter for WBBH-TV in Fort Myers, Florida, before moving to Columbus. Jesse’s research drew attention to severe droughts in the area, prompting the city to build a multimillion-dollar water reservoir. Jesse and his colleagues won the Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence in Breaking News for their reporting in two fast-paced breaking news scenarios.
After college, he interned with David Muir at ABC News’s World News Tonight, where he worked alongside network correspondents and producers. When he’s not at work, Jesse enjoys straddling the line between couch potato and active explorer; when he’s not watching a sci-fi or horror film, he’s out exploring San Diego’s hiking trails or relaxing on one of our amazing beaches.
