Justin Barney Career | Education

Barney studied at Florida State College in Jacksonville from 1994 to 1998 and received his Bachelor of Arts in Journalism. He is currently playing his role at News4Jax serving as a sports editor since he secured a position at the network in February 2019. Prior to joining News4Jax in February 2019, Justin Barney lived on the First Coast.

Justin tried his hand at athletics for the majority of those formative years in town. But in baseball, he was too often unsuccessful. In basketball, hit more rims than the net. Additionally, he was not allowed to try to tackle football for reasons his parents said were safety-related. Upon reflection, it was most likely done to prevent the family from experiencing long-term shame.

In the fall of 1998, Barney started writing about sports for the Florida Times-Union, putting his days of playing sports in the past. Everything local, from the Jaguars to rhythmic gymnastics, was his concentration. After covering the Jacksonville Suns for a season and a half, his desire to concentrate more on local talent took precedence. Before returning to the Times-Union in 2012, when he first served as the high school sports editor and then as the sports editor, Justin worked for ten years as the sports editor of the St. Augustine Record.

Covering Tim Tebow at Nease from 2003 to 2005, Derrick Henry during his record-breaking season at Yulee in 2012, breaking the news on former Major League Baseball player Ryan Freel’s diagnosis of the brain disease CTE in 2013, and covering academic issues involving athletes at Arlington Country Day in 2014 are some of Justin’s most memorable experiences over the years. Apart from his writing and editing responsibilities, Justin worked as a seasonal radio and local sports television analyst in the local market for seven years.
