date echoes out as 1969-12-31

Some of the dates (timestamp) in my database have a value of
0000-00-00 00:00:00

when I echo out the date - I see
1969-12-31 19:00

so i have the following code to display the words n/a when the date is not valid (this part works - the first line)

if ($time_added == 0) echo 'Date Added - n/a <br/>';    
if ($time_added != 0) echo 'Date Added - ' . date("Y-m-d G:i ", strtotime($row['time_added'])).'<br/>';

the second line in my code, i want it to display the actual date stored in the database - given that it is a valid date - but it does not work … hope someone can help
