Default OT--Charged with lying about a crime that wasn't committed?

In article . net,

I don't think the facts will bear out that he lied. His testimony may
not
square with the testimony of a few news reporters (Russert, Cooper, etc0
but that doesn't mean that his testimony is false.


His testimony doesn't square with his own notes, contemporaneously
recorded when Cheney told him about Valerie Plame.


He testified that Russert told him about Plame...not the other way around.
He also testified that he told Russert that he didn't know it to be true or
not. Did he lie to Russert? Perhaps. Did he lie to Fitzgerald? Maybe
not. But is it a crime to lie to a news reporter? Especially a reporter who
is fishing for a story by pretending to know the answer to the questions
he's asking?
