Joe Lockhart to Join Facebook
Facebook touts Lockhart's experience with 24/7 news cycle
Remember that rumor about former Obama White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs joining Facebook? The idea was right—but it was the wrong press secretary. Instead, Facebook confirmed Tuesday that Joe Lockhart, who was press secretary under President Bill Clinton, will join Facebook July 15 as vice president of global communications.
In his new position, Lockhart will manage Facebook's corporate, policy, and international communications based at Facebook headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif. He'll report to Elliott Schrage, vice president of global communications, marketing, and public policy.
