问题
Hopefully this isn't obvious to others because I find the docs at http://json-schema.org/ to be lacking in finer details. I'm getting a block of json with some properties that can be null or a string. How do you specify, in a json schema (to be parsed by json.NET's JsonSchema.Parse method), that a value can be of type null or type string?
Is there something simple I'm missing like supplying an array for the type? For example;
"member_region": { "type": [ "string", null ] } // this throws an exception
Also, does anyone have a better source for json schema details then the json-schema.org? Where can I find a larger selection of examples? I don't want to read a big doc/spec to find something that can easily be demonstrated in a 10 line example.

From http://json-schema.org/latest/json-schema-validation.html#anchor79
The value of this keyword MUST be either a string or an array. If it is an array, elements of the array MUST be strings and MUST be unique.
String values MUST be one of the seven primitive types defined by the core specification.
Then we refer to types: http://json-schema.org/latest/json-schema-core.html#anchor8
It lists string and null. Try:
"member_region": { "type": "string, null" }

Extending on Explosion Pills answer if you go for the array syntax:
"member_region": { "type": [ "string", "null" ] } // this works
because you are stating a type not an example you shouldn't go for:
"member_region": { "type": [ "string", null ] } // this throws an exception
