Ms. Hicks is the White House Communications director. Her predecessors include David Gergen, George Stephanopoulos, Nicole Wallace. I seem recall all of them speaking publicly while in that role. Am I misremembering? I have never heard Ms. Hicks, have you?

(7,527 posts)The position of "communications director" needn't be a media position. There are people who direct communications internally in most companies.
Hicks may hold that title so she can justify the exorbitant salary 45 the Bedswerver wants to pay her. One is technically "directing communications" by answering the phone and transferring the caller to the correct department. On the ground, that position is usually called "receptionist". (With no shade to professional office personnel.)

(115,681 posts)She sounds like an unusually vapid high school kid. She issued this written statement about Trump last spring; think of it being read by a teenager. Like, totally.
