Jay Vo Media was founded under the principle of creating a new era in journalism. We specialize in providing news gathering and investigative reporting services to newsrooms across Arizona. Our highly-skilled and talented photojournalists respond, film, gather information and distribute newsworthy events to newsrooms across Arizona.

Jay Vo started his journalism career back in 2019 with the creation of a small-town, locally-oriented news service dedicated to the community of Wittmann, Arizona. Throughout his career, he has worked in management positions at many of the top news gathering services in the United States. With his experience from working in management, Jay quickly learned of many indiscretions in news gathering companies and decided to start his own company specializing in news gathering and investigative reporting to newsrooms and the public in an honest, direct and a timely manner.
