Never say never, Mary.

Entertainment Tonight host Mary Hart joins exec producer Linda Bell Blue in standing by the show's story about Angelina Jolie giving birth, telling the LA Daily News (via women-hater Liz Snead) on Saturday at a Cedars-Sinai Heart Foundation event: "No one has seen Angelina in the last two weeks. 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."

Oh really, Mary? Never. had. to. retract. a. story. in. 26. years?

Were it not for publicists reminding us, we might forget such important events like the Women In Communication Matrix Awards and Bentley Motors' East Side House Settlement Gala Preview of the 2006 New York International Auto Show. It also slipped our minds that Entertainment Tonight – the bastion of primetime-ish celebrity newsdom – is turning 25. They're having a little get together in Beverly Hills next week, and they'd love for you to come.

You are invited to The Museum of Television and Radio's seminar celebrating 25 Years of "Entertainment Tonight"

Panelists: Linda Bell Blue, Mary Hart, Mark Steines, Leonard Maltin, Jann Carl

Guest Moderator: Henry Winkler, Actor/Producer

With its fast pace, colorful celebrity interviews, exclusive access to upcoming industry projects, and up-to-the-minute reports on the current show business scene, Entertainment Tonight has been a favorite place to go to catch up on everything that's hot and happening in pop culture. Covering television, film, music, fashion, and special events in a widely imitated format, the program is currently in its 25th season, having broadcast more than 7,000 shows, and remains the #1 syndicated entertainment newsmagazine in the world. Join the Executive Producer and some of the ET anchors in a discussion of what it's like to put together one of the medium's most successful magazine series.

And unlike Mediabistro's editor parties, Entertainment Tonight is inviting students (with valid college ID, of course). If you do happen to go, we're expecting a full photo report on how many years Mary Hart knocks off by appearing on a fuzzy lense camera.

The full call to action, after the jump.
