Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel said an interview he conducted with Democratic Texas lawmaker James Talarico will not air on television, alleging that regulatory 'threats' were behind the decision. The White House denied Kimmel's claims, accusing him of 'play acting' and disputing that any pressure was applied.
