This article is about the BBC and MailOnline journalist. For the late BBC announcer, see James Alexander Gordon.

James Daniel Gordon is a broadcast journalist and radio presenter for BBC News and the Mail Online.[1] He reports on a variety of popular articles, and is currently a correspondent covering America, especially New York. Increasingly, Gordon has been producing articles for the Web: important topics covered have included the controversy over selling school places overseas,[2] the forgotten residents of Louisiana whose town resides in the infamous "spillaway area" in case of flooding,[3] and the end of NASA's Space Shuttle program.[4]

Early career

Graduating from the University of Cardiff,[5] Gordon's early career saw him presenting news packages for BBC Radio Yorkshire.[6] Following a period working as a journalist for Newsbeat and BBC News 24 at the BBC Television Centre in London, Gordon moved to the BBC's New York bureau where his journalism offers an American perspective to British audiences.

Community Affairs

In his spare time, Gordon offers his services to the community by presenting a regular Sunday Show on UK Country Radio;[7] a move that was highly influenced by his close association with his BBC colleague, Allan Watkiss.[8] In this capacity, Gordon has devoted his time to the improvement of local communities. He remains firmly committed to this role despite having moved to New York, fitting the show in with his regular broadcasting, and has become jovially known as the station's Resident Englishman in New York.

James' hobbies include theatre and travel.

Personal life

James is married to noted CNet Presenter/Producer Sally Neiman[9] since 2015, and lives with her in New York City. Together, they have worked on news articles spanning a range of topics, including a shocking exposé of products sold under the guise of different companies.[10]
