Uber talk-show host Oprah Winfrey, who was scheduled to make a pitch for tougher dog laws in Pennsylvania on yesterday's show, ran out of time and couldn't fit in the comments, a Winfrey spokesman said.

She tentatively plans on addressing the issue later this month.

Winfrey was expected to read excerpts from a letter Gov. Rendell sent her last month seeking support for legislation he's pushing to overhaul Pennsylvania's dog law to prevent abuses in puppy mills. Rendell wrote the letter after Winfrey aired a segment highlighting abuses at commercial kennels in Lancaster County. - Angela Couloumbis
