Campbell Brown, a former CNN and NBC News anchor, has accepted the position of running the News Partnership team at Facebook, where she will help combat fake news.
“This is a different role for me, but one where I will be tapping my newsroom experience to help news organizations and journalists work more closely and more effectively with Facebook. I will be working directly with our partners to help them understand how Facebook can expand the reach of their journalism, and contribute value to their businesses. That also means making sure there is ongoing feedback from publishers as Facebook develops new products and tools for news organizations,” Brown wrote on Facebook.
