Entertainment Tonight, which wrongly reported Angelina Jolie gave birth to her twins when, in fact, they're still inside her womb, is now said to have known all along that their information was bunk.

On Friday, the show, headed by exec producer Linda Bell Blue and long-rumored to have sacks of cash waiting for sources, reported Jolie had given birth to the twins and that everyone was happy and healthy at the hospital. Except after that story was posted online, and before ET aired that night, Blue and her team were notified that their source was an impostor.

All along, they thought the source was Holly Goline, Jolie's assistant. Except communications between Goline and ET after the tabloid show reported the story online revealed Goline was not the actual source, and the show had been duped by an imposter pretending to be Goline, as Jossip was the first to report.

Not that it kept Mary Hart's report from airing hours later: "Just this morning, a source who says she was inside the delivery room tells us yes, the babies were born and yes, mother and babies are fine."

Now begins the fallout.

ET's Blue has still refused to retract the story, saying she was "waiting to see how this story plays out" — perhaps hoping that before anyone could confirm she knew her source was a fake, Angelina would go into labor? That hasn't kept the show from pulling the story off its website and not mentioning it again since it aired Friday. (The most recent Jolie item on ETOnline.com is "Angelina Jolie: Babies on Board!")

Meanwhile, producer Sharlette Hambrick, who told bosses she had Goline's BlackBerry email address from their days working together at CNN, faces scrutiny. Namely, because Goline is said to have never had a BlackBerry email address. Also: It was after the story was posted online that Hambrick called Goline – really? after they broke the news? they thought they should give their source a call? – for more details, and Goline denied being the source.

Also, one source tells Jossip that Goline, who's described as "really fun" and "very nice," never worked at CNN or at the CNN Center. She was an assistant of Barbara Griffin at Turner Image Management, which was located at the entertainment campus in midtown Atlanta, where TNT, TCM, and Cartoon Network are housed. Goline took this job after working a stint for Jolie and then returned to the actress' employ in 2002 as she was preparing for the Tomb Raider sequel.
