He was convicted because the Jury was convinced he made up the story about Russert telling him so he could throw off the investigation. Why would Libby do that knowing he wasn't the one that leaked to Novak? Meanwhile, Russert lied under oath about when he knew about Plame and he's a hero. Makes you think the system doesn't always work.
Libby had nothing to do with the leak, it was Armitage, and Fitzgerald wouldn't say if a law was even broken, yet at sentencing he said punish him as if he interfered with an investigation of a crime that possibly cost lives. Why isn't Armitage charged with anything if it was to be treated that severe? The probation office recommended 15-20 months. He got 30. One more point; The WaPo juror Collins said Libby was the Fall guy for the White House. This is proof they got it wrong because it was the State Department that leaked to Novak.
