Stephen Brady (Earth-5875)

"Do you know who is still listening to my announcements? An old woman, too weak to leave her bed... A man, bleeding in the street. A teacher, hiding with her students in a school basement. My job is to fill the time before they die with truth... With hope."

- - Stephen Brady to Mike Branley

Stephen Brady was the Public Service Announcer of the New Mombasa Police Department.

Biography
During the Battle of Mombasa, at the Battle of Earth, Brady broadcasted numerous propaganda pieces to civilians who were trapped in New Mombasa. He was later confronted by Mike Branley, who found him broadcasting in the communications hub of the NMPD Headquarters: his latter broadcast had claimed three NMPD officers Marshall Glick and Jim Odingo were heroes who died fighting against the Covenant, but in fact one had killed the other out of the stress of the invasion, before being killed by a SWAT team of the NMPD.

Branleuy then accused Stephen of being a manipulator, but he argued that his lies gave hope to the citizens who were doomed to die. To prove his point, Stephen put Mike on the air on his place, daring him to tell the truth about the invasion. Mike then started lying, much like Stephen, and claiming that the civilians were being succesfull at repelling the Covenant.
