[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Robert Thomson ? News Corp. chief executive officer Robert Thomson  slammed Google and Facebook for what  he  calls a âdysfunctionalâ and âdebasedâ online environment that harms traditional media  according to a variety of published reports.
Efforts by the two online giants to reduce misinformation and improve online news were only âmodest steps toward changing a digital environment that is dysfunctional at its core â  Thomson  said.
Facebook and Google are âin the midst of a particularly disruptive period  commercially  socially and politically â  he  added.
âThe bot-infested badlands are hardly a safe space for advertisers  whose brands are being tainted by association with the extreme  the violent and the repulsive â  Thomson  said.
News Corp. reported growth in online visits and subscriptions for its media properties such as the Wall Street Journal and The Sun of Britain   Thomson  said. But the companies profitability could rise if âthe potential returns for our journalism would be far higher in a less chaotic  less debased digital environment â he said.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity John Fritchey ? Shuftan made his comments after Commissioners John Fritchey and Luis Arroyo Jr.  both Chicago Democrats  announced they would introduce a resolution next week to put the question on the March 20 primary ballot.
After his announcement   Fritchey  made the rounds of the county boardroom at an unrelated committee meeting  asking for support.
A longtime advocate of making recreational marijuana use legal   Fritchey  pointed to the legalization and taxation of recreational marijuana in Colorado and Washington. State and local governments in Illinois could expect to bring in $500 million a year in pot taxes based on those statesâ experiences   he  said.
âItâs about unclogging a court system that is overburdened â  Fritchey  said. âIf we can take these cases out of the court system  we will be doing a tremendous service not just to the individuals but to the court system as well.â
âAlmost 90 percent of these cases get dismissed  doing nothing but leaving individuals with an arrest record â  he  added. âWe are wasting court resources. We are damaging lives. And we have the ability to do better.â
Fritchey â a former state lawmaker â also said  he  hoped a successful ballot question in Cook County would spur legislators to take a vote on a potentially thorny issue during an election year in 2018.
Sen. Heather Steans and Rep. Kelly Cassidy  both of whom like  Fritchey  live on the cityâs North Side  introduced legislation in March to allow the possession of up to 28 grams of pot  or about an ounce  and to grow five plants. Their proposals call for a tax of $50 an ounce  plus the standard state 6.25 percent sales tax. Local governments like the city and county collect their own sales taxes  so they likely also would bring in more money as a result of legalization.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Sayfullo Saipov ? SAN FRANCISCO â Sayfullo Saipov  the 29-year-old suspect in Tuesday's deadly New York truck attack  earned money the way many gig economy works do. He drove for Uber.
But the fact that  Saipov  raised no flags for the ride-hailing company when it conducted its standard background check shows just how difficult it is to screen for potentially criminal behavior if there is no track record.
 Saipov  drove more than 1 400 trips for Uber in the past six months. Authorities continue to investigate the suspect  who came from Uzbekistan in 2010 and settled in Paterson  N.J. To date  his biggest offense seems to be from 2015  when he was cited by police for towing a trailer that was too long.

The company's response to that incident was the same as its statement after  Saipov  rammed  his  rented truck into bicyclists  killing 8. An Uber representative said the company was "horrified" at the senseless act of violence as was cooperating with federal officials.
Uber said  Saipov  had been banned from the Uber app.
