Jackie Brockington, Anchor
She knows news in Central Florida. That knowledge makes Jackie Brockington a strong addition to the anchor desk at News 13.
This Brooklyn, New Yorker’s first broadcasting job was doing weather in Green Bay, Wisconsin! That was only the first stop. Jackie has worked in Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Maryland and San Diego, California. She has also worked as a news anchor for WESH-TV in Orlando.
The excitement of something new each day is what fascinates Jackie about her work. She likes being in the middle of the action.
When she's not anchoring the news, Jackie likes to spend time with her family. She jokingly calls them a “mini United Nations.” One of her sons-in-law is from Italy, the other from the Czech Republic! She admittedly spoils her granddaughter to pieces. Her cat also part of the family.
Jackie enjoys cooking, reading, entertaining and traveling. She says she wants to make sure that she has made a contribution with her life.
