It's strange to find myself siding with the #HumanRights #WorldCup organisers in lovely #Qatar, so I'll just confine myself to saying that this headline and the accompanying article reflect badly on the Guardian.

"World Cup to be surrounded by overpriced products" is barely news.

"Alcohol not cheap in Islamic country" is a Dog Bites Man story.

Running with this looks like a really poor decision, as if they're desperate to find a new negative angle, no matter how tenuous. Sometimes the obvious option is also the best.
