With all this talk about Keith possibly cheating on bonehead while he was in L.A., it made me remember a story that Monica Novotny had done once when she was on Countdown.
The story was about this GPS device for people who suspect their SO is cheating on them. After she finished her story Keith told her that he would never get caught. Monica told him that he would but he argued with her that he wouldn't. This back and forth went on for a short time.
Of course he was being mighty smug about it. I didn't think it was funny at all. I still don't. In fact, I thought, how pathetic are you to think that YOU would never get caught, AND that it says a great deal about what kind of person you are.
This told me that Keith thinks he can get away with anything...including cheating. And I don't believe for one minute that he's changed his point of view on this.
Profile of the Sociopath
Glibness and Superficial Charm
Manipulative and Conning They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible.
They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.
Grandiose Sense of Self Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."
Pathological Lying Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.
Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.
Shallow Emotions When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.
Incapacity for Love
Need for Stimulation Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.
Callousness/Lack of Empathy Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.
Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.
Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.
Irresponsibility/Unreliability Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.
Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.
Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.
Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

The Seven Deadly Sins
Lust: that pretty much speaks for itself
Gluttony: eating too much and too expensively
Greed: an excessive materialistic hoarding and manipulating authority to get more than you need
Sloth; unwillingness to care; laziness and indifference
Wrath/Envy: I put these two together because they intertwine with jealousy, hatred and anger towards the one who has more; in Keith's case it would be, "love of one's own good perverted to a desire to deprive other men of theirs"-Dante
Pride: thinks he's more important and attractive than others;
Dante- "love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbor"

What a skeez ball!
Has Keith ever taken his girlfriend anywhere? Have they ever been photographed together?
As far as I know the only thing out there with those two is when they were standing in line for the new Harry Potter book. Which, apparently, is lost. But then, I haven't looked for it either.
The funny thing about that is, when he showed the clip on Countdown he was all smiles until they got back from a commercial.
You could clearly see a significant change in attitude.
My thought at the time was that she got pissed off and let him have it during the commercial.
Ever since then, nothing.
I vaguely recall that, flowergirl--I remember thinking he didn't know that was the shot that they were going to show-hence the change of attitude. On the contrary, I think she loves to be on camera, and was dying for the chance.
You lost me with this one, Flowergirl. The clip of those two standing in line for the new Harry Potter book is lost? I have a clip of that. What do you mean "she let him have it during the commercial"? You mean Katy? Er, bonehead? Why? I'll look at it to see if I can figure out what you mean.
And what about "all this talk that he was cheating on her while in L.A."? Where? I couldn't find anything. I must see this accusation!
Kelli,
I think she loves being on camera too but apparently not with Keith.
I'm not so sure it was the shot that had anything to do with his attitude change. Because after they showed the clip he seemed pretty pleased with himself.
My memory could be blurred though.
Marinara,
Please do take a look at that footage because I would prefer a correction if necessary.
As for that cheating talk, that was on here in comments.
And I don't think Keith is a very loyal lover. But that's just me.
I can't say what he looked like when he came back from the commercial, because I only have the 'Pottermania' clip. But they were both enjoying themselves at that bookstore. Can't see any reason why she should have been pissed off that he showed it.
I don't know about that cheating stuff....I know he realizes it is imperative that he guard his reputation, especially after that KarmaBites 1 thing. Don't you suppose he's been warned not to let that happen again? Murdoch would smear him all over the place for a new transgression of this same type, even if the woman he was with didn't complain. Especially when he's declared himself publically to be in a relationship. Billo might actually say his name, then.
MSNBC doesn't want their new brand name to be dragged through the mud, either. And he probably has some 'moral turpitude' clause in his contract. What I said about him and Mary Carey happened in '06, or earlier, but that was very, very under the radar.
The cheating accusation has arisen from his lips looking sucked-on in LA? C'mon! He would never allow a blemish like a hickey on his neck to mar his appearance, and I really don't think he would let some woman abuse his lips until they looked sucked on, either. I thought they looked a little too red, but his make-up was different in LA, and his hair was fucked up, too. I just thought the lips were part of a lousy make-up job.
You know what I like about you Marinara? You have this certain kind of devotion for Keith and I think that's great.
Too bad you didn't have the whole footage I would have loved to have seen it again. Even if it proved me wrong.
Them having fun doing that was what concerned me about his sudden change in attitude.
As for the cheating stuff? Though I understand your point of view on that and it makes a lot of sense, but Keith is a very arrogant person who thinks he can get away with anything and would be willing to try just to see if he could.
But that's just the way I perceive him.
I love to analyze things, and for the time being, I am devoted to analyzing this man. I know he's an arrogant pig, but I still love him. I know, I'm pathetic. Oh, well....
I can't think of any instance where he has done something dumb just to see if he could get away with it. That's more the MO of Stephen Colbert and his ilk.
As I said, if he did something really bad and got caught, his reputation is toast, and maybe his show soon afterwards. He's bragged about FOX paying him to stay off the air when he worked for them, remember? Then too, he might be trying to deliberately cause another implosion so he can do just that, but I don't think so. Not with 3 years to go on his contract.
His change in attitude after that clip probably had nothing to do with the footage. Kelliknows said she thought he didn't know they were going to use it, but I think Keith has strict control over that show, and knows each and every bit of film that is to be shown, and I really doubt they had more than one version of 'Keeping Tabs' that night. Anyway, he trusts his producer, Izzy Povich, so if there were any part of the show that he was not able to oversee himself, she knows what he likes and what would piss him off.
Oh, forgot to mention, Bonehead got a three minute in-studio segment about clubbing those cute baby harp seals to death in Canada. She was interviewing a photagrapher who was lamenting the fact that this is still legal. She was actually pretty good this time, I thought.

--------------------------
Yes, and that's the point I was trying to make. I think bonehead contacted him during the commercial break and told him something that pissed him off. And ever since then there hasn't been any photos or film of those two together.
At least that we know of.
He didn't get a swollen lip in LA all by himself. Funny how on the vast majority of his road trips he sports a similar look. Bad makeup in ALL of those cities? Or just new pussy in every city?
I never really pay that much attention but I do believe he's not faithful.
