Beck falsely asserted that Libby "went to jail" for obstructing Plame investigation

SUMMARY: On his CNN Headline News show, Glenn Beck stated: "I said that Scooter Libby should go to jail and he should pay the price for lying to prosecutors. ... He lied to prosecutors. The guy went to jail." In fact, just after a court rejected Libby's request to remain free while he appealed his conviction, President Bush commuted all of Libby's 30-month prison sentence.
