According to today's Morning Call ("Knoll loses press secretary — her sixth since 2003," by John L. Micek):
Johnna Pro, a former Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reporter who joined Knoll's staff in October, resigned Monday. Neither Pro nor Rendell administration spokeswoman Kate Philips would comment Friday on the reason for the departure.
Pro, 42, said she will remain on the state payroll until June 30 but will leave her job Friday. Pro also said she's ''exploring other opportunities.''
''It's a challenging job,'' a senior Rendell administration source said. ''The way the media portrays [Knoll] can be difficult. And when you're a government press secretary in the middle of a campaign, there's not much for you to do.''
Describing a job that doesn't require you to do much as a challenge seems kind fo odd. Many would find it a dream come true.

You'd think that a press secretary in the middle of a campaign would be bustling to get out the word on the great things she's been doing along the way... oh wait... yeah, nothing much to do is right.
i think she meant that all the work is handled by the campaign spokesperson since she, being on the government payroll, can't take part in political activities. Who is Knoll's campaign spokesperson anyway? I guess at this point all Rendell/Knoll statements will be handled by dan fee anyway.
