Unusual mix

The guest list for Sunday's NBC4 Newsconference might seem like a non sequitur, but there is a theme to it: "courage, fearlessness and leadership" for the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Host Laurel Erickson will chat with Speaker Fabian Núñez, paralyzed LAPD officer Kristina Ripatti, LAPD Medal of Valor winner Hector Feliciano and Arianna Huffington. It airs after "Meet the Press" at 9 am Sunday.

Speaking of TV news: Blogging.la notes the return from maternity leave of Tits McGhee, their nick for KCOP news-for-idiots anchor Lauren Sanchez.
