Hope Hicks Has Reemerged, And She Has A New Job

Variety — Hope Hicks, the former White House communications director who served during the chaotic first year of the Trump administration, has been named head of corporate communications for New Fox, the company to emerge after 21st Century Fox completes the sale of assets to Disney early next year.

Hicks has been named exec VP and chief communications officer for Fox. She will report to Viet Dinh, Fox’s chief legal and policy officer. Also appointed at New Fox on Monday was Danny O’Brien as exec VP and head of government relations. He comes to Fox after working in the same capacity for GE Transportation.

“Hope and Danny are proven leaders and world-class public affairs professionals. Together they will define and project Fox’s voice to our relevant communities,” Dinh said.

Please excuse me for just a moment…

Congratulations to the exquisite Hope Hicks. She has landed on her feet, in stride, sprinting towards yet another inspiring career as a badass businesswoman. Rumors swirled involving my girl and when and where she would next surface. If she would again surface. She laid low for months, making it impossible to know how she was doing no matter how many sleepless nights I logged staring at the ceiling; wondering, conjecturing, hoping. In my heart of hearts, I always knew an impressive reemergence would come. I didn’t think it’d be all the way across the fucking country, but I knew it would come. Executive VP and comms officer for FOX? Psh, she’ll be running the joint by New Years.

Also, I must point out. Can you think of a single person who’s left the White House, then been universally praised….. by the White House?

She really is an angel. I knew it.

Welcome back, Hope. Let’s leave everything behind and run away to the beach forever together dominate our respective media careers!
