—J. Jonah Jameson[source]Welcome to "Just the Facts" with J. Jonah Jameson, alerting you to the threats you don't even know about.
History
J. Jonah Jameson was a famous newspaper publisher at Daily Bugle, in New York City. He is known for his criticism of superpowered people, specially for Spider-Man, which he considers a public menace and even had Mac Gargan become the superpowered Scorpion so he could defeat Spider-Man. One day, Peter Parker had managed to contact Jameson regarding a photo of Spider-Man which Peter had “taken”. Jameson had been drinking coffee at a local cafe, and agreed to see Peter if the latter managed to arrive before Jameson finished his coffee. Peter managed to arrive on time and handed the photo to Jameson, who did not like the photo, but nonetheless decided to publish it as he needed a photo of Spider-Man for his front page. He eventually retired from his job and began working on his own podcast, called "Just the Facts with J. Jonah Jameson", interviewing people and commenting about any city occurrences.[3]
The show released podcast of Jameson's rantings. Along with several callers pointing out he's just scapegoating Spider-Man due to his irrational hatred. Jameson also used his podcast to show support, and later to criticize Mayor Norman Osborn and Sable International for their actions on handling the Devil's Breath crisis and the Raft breakout.
Jameson almost had a heart attack when a new Spider-Man suddenly appeared on the city, helping fight crime alongside the original Spider-Man. Over time, Jameson also started to attack the new webhead, saying that he would keep an eye on both Spider-Men equally and that he would not hesitate on criticize them.[3]
One year after the Devil's Breath crisis, Jameson had the recording session of the special Christmas edition of his podcast interrupted when both Spider-Men crashed through his studio while trying to stop a rampaging Rhino that had escaped from containment while being transferred, causing Jameson to call them a "feckless, treacherous, unhinged menace!"[1]
By 2020, Jameson eventually interrupted his retirement, and resumed working on The Daily Bugle again, where he personally oversaw articles that were published, even rejecting an article posted by Mary Jane Watson about Spider-Man in favor of another article from a newcomer.
His return to the Bugle however didn't stop his ongoing Just the Facts podcast, where he still used his personal show to criticize both Spider-Men on the multiple mayhems caused by the heroes, specially during the Sandman attack on New York, during which his limousine crashed into a sand pile, resulting in him suffering another heart attack. One of the Spider-Men found him through a request on the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man App, after he pulled the limousine out of the sand and took a barely-conscious Jameson to a hospital. When Jameson realized who his rescuer was, he ranted at him for “kidnapping” him. Thankfully, he was saved from cardiac arrest. He would later report on Symbiote Crisis on the city.[2]Personality
