When we get it wrong, however, we aren’t above an apology and a retraction. (Turns out Miley Cyrus was never pregnant. Our bad!)
The same can’t be said for Entertainment Tonight. The supposedly venerable celebrity gossip show still won’t face the facts when it comes to Angelina Jolie giving birth; or NOT giving birth, to be precise.
So Pregnant
“We still don’t know if she’s had those babies or not and until we do we won’t retract our story. I don’t know yet that we’ve made a mistake,” host Mary Hart recently said.
Hart makes this statement despite the fact that Brad Pitt was in a different country from Jolie when she supposedly gave birth to twins; and that Brangelina’s publicist has denied the report.
“I hope that the babies were born when we said they were and that we had our facts straight. I have never retracted a story in 26 years, but all I can do now is wait and see,” Hart said.
It’s a genius move by Hart. She’ll wait, she’ll see that the babies are eventually born and - presto! - Entertainment Tonight’s report will be verified.
This is the best plan since Linda Hogan decided to date 19-year Charlie Hill as vengeance for being cheated on.
