On August 27, former Facebook executive Rachel Whetstone joined Netflix as the company’s new chief communications officer. Whetstone has an extensive background in communications and policy, having also worked at Google and Uber. She’ll replace Jonathan Friedland at the streaming powerhouse in November, after he was was fired for using racially offensive terms on several occasions. “Rachel is a proven communications leader and a strong addition to the Netflix team,” said Netflix CEO Reed Hastings. “Her deep knowledge and international expertise will be invaluable as we bring Netflix and its expanding lineup of original content to an increasingly global audience.”
