Meh, I disagree, he's not too smart but he's not really arrogant. He seems that way, but not on purpose - except for his clothing style, anyway.

*nods* This I agree with. If he wasn't arrogant before, he may become so after this exposure. I think the reporter was stupid for thinking she could make him genuinely sorry for this - by the end he was definitely starting to enjoy aggravating her.

But I still stand by the fact that he didn't damage the cars, other partygoers did, and he stayed inside his house as asked by the policeman once they were on the scene. All in all, he did absolutely nothing wrong except not obeying his parents, but they shouldn't get too mad him as if his actions caused the car damage, because they didn't. That was after the party, done by his friends. He did apologize anyways, even though he didn't really mean it because he wasn't really at fault.
