I'm impressed at the sheer amount of investigative journalism that went into this story, and a little bit amused that all of it is applied to something that would otherwise be in TMZ or Entertainment Weekly.

I might just be jaded but apart from a couple of parts that got me to raise my eyebrows a little bit everything else seemed in line with the standard ultra-rich/important student experience on any major US college campus.

What is the news here?
> the son and, later, brother of Qatar’s emir

Don't read this sentence too quickly...

People with that much wealth and status don't inhabit the same world as the rest of us.
