Paterson's Press Secretary Resigns
Governor David Paterson's press secretary is resigning, making her the fourth top staffer to resign amid scandals that threaten the administration.
Marissa Shorenstein says she is quitting because her reported role in one of the scandals makes her unable to do her job effectively.
The New York Times had reported that Shorenstein, at Paterson's direction, contacted a woman who had accused a trusted Paterson aide of abuse. The woman dropped her claim soon after.
Paterson's communications director, deputy public safety secretary and state police superintendent have also resigned.
Today, Paterson announced the appointment of Morgan Hook as Director of Communications.
