PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Donald J. Trump ? "Wow "  Mr. Trump  wrote on Twitter  "Matt Lauer was just fired from NBC for 'inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace.'"
Wow  Matt Lauer was just fired from NBC for âinappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace.â But when will the top executives at NBC & Comcast be fired for putting out so much Fake News. Check out Andy Lackâs past! â Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 29  2017
Last October  in the final weeks of the presidential campaign  Summer Zervos claimed she had repeatedly been harassed by  Mr. Trump  when she was a contestant on  his  NBC show  "The Apprentice."
Earlier this fall  Zervos' attorney served  Mr. Trump  a subpoena to preserve "all documents concerning any accusations that were made during the campaign that he subjected any woman to unwanted sexual touching and/or sexually inappropriate behavior."
Throughout the campaign   then-candidate Trump  dismissed the allegations.
"The events never happened ... never. All of these liars will be sued after the election is over  " Mr. Trump  said.
But  Mr. Trump  has not followed through on that threat. And one of  his  accusers told CBS News that she never believed  he  would sue.
"This was locker room talk  " Mr. Trump  has said.

SOLUTION: Neutral

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Koontz Jane Hawk ? Jane  knows  her  husband didn't commit suicide but proving it has been a challenge.  She  uncovered an evil plot to brainwash people to commit horrific acts  but  her  attempt to destroy the villain behind everything came with a horrible cost.  She  no longer has  her  job at the FBI and is a wanted fugitive.  She  keeps  her  son stashed away to protect him.  Jane  now roams the country to derail the mastermind and his nefarious plans.
A beloved schoolteacher on leave due to migraines is the latest to fall under the vicious mind games. She has dreams of walking through fire  and one afternoon she sets her vehicle on fire and drives through a hotel lobby. A sheriff uncovers her journals and sees a woman crying for help. When  Jane  learns of the incident   she  knows the people  she 's trying to eliminate are responsible.  She  has already gone rogue  and knowing  her  son is safe   she  has nothing to lose by going after the culprits.
When one of  her  targets tells  her   "You're dead already. They'll all know about you in the whispering room "  Jane  knows  she  has to learn what  his  cryptic phrase means even though it obviously will be a trap to take  her  out of the picture.
 The character of Jane Hawk  is arguably the best character Koontz has created. Knowledge of "The Silent Corner" helps put some of the narrative in perspective  but it's not necessary to fall under the author's spell. It's clear that another story featuring  her  quest for ultimate justice is on the horizon  and hopefully there will be even more after that.

SOLUTION: Positive

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Louis C.K ? HBO is severing ties with  Louis C.K.  following a New York Times report that the comedian sexually harassed five women  with allegations spanning back to the late '90s.
The premium cable network has confirmed that it has cut  C.K.  from its Night of Too Many Stars charity telecast  an annual event which raises funds for autism services. HBO also announced that it will be pulling the comedian's stand-up specials and previous TV series â including Lucky Louie â from its on-demand platforms.
â Louis C.K.  will no longer be participating in the Night of Too Many Stars: America Unites for Autism Programs  which will be presented live on HBO on November 18 â an HBO spokesperson said  per Variety. âIn addition  HBO is removing  Louis C.K. âs past projects from its On Demand services.â
Meanwhile  FX Networks â the home of  C.K. 's Emmy-winning comedy Louie  where the showrunner has an overall deal and also executive produces Pamela Adlon's Better Things and Zach Galifianakis' Baskets â issued a statement in response to the report.
âWe are obviously very troubled by the allegations about  Louis C.K.  published in The New York Times today. The network has received no allegations of misconduct by  Louis C.K.  related to any of our 5 shows produced together over the past 8 years. FX Networks and FXP take all necessary actions to protect our employees and thoroughly investigate any allegations of misconduct within our workplace. That said  the matter is currently under review.â
Earlier Thursday  the premiere for  C.K. 's upcoming film  I Love You  Daddy  was canceled ahead of the New York Times' story  with the indie's distributor  The Orchard  revealing that the release plan for the film was being reviewed.
âIn light of the allegations concerning  Louis C.K.  referenced in todayâs New York Times  we are cancelling tonightâs premiere of I Love You  Daddy " the statement read. "There is never a place for the behavior detailed in these allegations. As a result  we are giving careful consideration to the timing and release of the film and continuing to review the situation.â
 C.K.  was also scheduled to appear on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Thursday night before canceling his appearance  with William H. Macy now set to replace him as a guest  according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Allegations against  C.K.  come on the heels of accusations of sexual misconduct leveled against a number of high-profile Hollywood figures including Harvey Weinstein  James Toback  Kevin Spacey  Roy Price  Brett Ratner  Ed Westwick  Steven Seagal  and Jeffrey Tambor. Hours after the  C.K.  report broke  an allegation of harassment against Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner also surfaced.
