Instead of printing the JSON directly I recommend using the $jsontool
(see
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Velocity+Module#HVelocityTools
). The advantage is that you don't have to care about escaping JSON
(property) values.
$jsontool.serialize({
"greeting" : $someObject.greeting,
"location": $someOtherObject.location
})
Hope this helps,
