"We must acknowledge the loss we have all, our entire species, suffered today."
— Penelope Boren, in regards of John-117's death

Lieutenant Penelope Boren is a former UNSC press secretary in 2558.[1][2] It was she that was chosen by ONI to deliver the news of the Master Chief's death to the galaxy at large.

In a message sent to Admiral Serin Osman by Commander Michael Sullivan, it was noted that Boren was chosen above more senior personnel due to the results of projections and personality tests concluding that her message would be delivered with the appropriate amount of "extreme gravitas" and "believable sincerity."

According to a letter of apology from Sullivan to Osman, Boren misspoke the date on which the Master Chief was officially declared KIA on October 27, 2560, when in fact it was supposed to be October 27, 2558.

In retaliation for the mistake, Boren was immediately reassigned to the Industries Discourse Management department on BXR-730, a remote mining colony. There, she was given a non-public-facing job, and is also required to have her work reviewed on a weekly basis by a member of Sullivan's general staff.[2]
