What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Matt Lauer ? On Wednesday morning  NBC confirmed that they had fired morning news anchor  Matt Lauer .  Lauer  has served as the centerpiece of Today  which The New York Times calls âthe most important part of the NBC News franchise â since 1997. A memo from NBC News chairman Andy Lack cited âinappropriate sexual behaviorâ as the grounds for termination.
âOn Monday night â Lack wrote  âWe received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace by  Matt Lauer . It represented  after serious review  a clear violation of our companyâs standards.â
While NBC took swift action against  Lauer  even before the allegations went public  itâs safe to assume that this story is far from over. As Lack himself acknowledged  âWhile it is the first complaint about his behavior in the over twenty years heâs been at NBC News  we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident.â
In the wake of  Lauer âs unexpected departure  Today was forced to reckon with the story in real time. Lauerâs co-host Savannah Guthrie was tasked with reporting on the latest in a string of sexual misconduct stories  this time involving her âdear  dear friendâ and colleague. âHow do you reconcile your love for someone with the revelation that they have behaved badly?â an emotional Guthrie asked. âAll we can say is we are heartbroken; Iâm heartbroken.â
Like the other recently disgraced media men before him  Lauerâs career is now open for reexamination. One incident thatâs already been circulated and picked apart by social media is the Presidential Forum that  Lauer  moderated in September 2016. At the time   Lauer  was widely criticized for the way  he  interacted with candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton  with many accusing the Today host of employing a sexist double standard. In one article  âHow Sexism  Like Matt Lauerâs  Could Imperil the Nation â Adele M. Stan wrote  âWhen questioning Clinton   Lauer  was all alpha-male  interrupting  her  and tsk-tsking  her  for criticizing  her  opponent after he had asked  her  not to do so. But when paired with Trump  it became clear who was the alpha in that set-up. It clearly wasn't  Lauer   who allowed Trump to talk over him  and to evade specifics.â
While  Lauer âs tendency to interrupt Clinton repeatedlyâwhile letting Trump go largely unchallengedâwas certainly cringe-worthy  it may not be Lauerâs most painful on-air interaction. Anyone searching for an example of overt sexism need look no further than his 2012 Today interview with Anne Hathaway. The actress  who was promoting her film Les Miserables at the time  had had the misfortune of being photographed during a âwardrobe malfunction.â âI was getting out of the car and my dress was so tight that I didnât realize it until I saw all the photographersâ flashes â she reportedly said in response to the âdevastatingâ incident. As if the revealing photographs werenât enough  Hathaway was then grilled on the minor controversy by  Lauer   who opened the interview with a gross allusion to the intimate pics.
âAnne Hathaway  good morning  nice to see you. Seen a lot of you lately â  Lauer  greeted  his  guest. While Hathaway  who responded that  âIâd be happy to stay home â clearly had no interest in discussing the upskirt shots   Lauer  continued. âLetâs just get it out of the way. You had a little wardrobe malfunction the other night. Whatâs the lesson learned from something like that  other than that you keep smiling  which youâll always do.â To summarize:  Lauer   mistaking pervy paparazzi pics for actual news  asked an accomplished actress about a painful incident  phrasing the invasion of privacy as a personal failing (âwhatâs the lesson learned from something like that?â). To make matters even worse  he all but told Hathaway to smile through itâwhich is just what every woman wants to hear from a man whoâs talking down to her about her lack of underwear on national television.
Hathaway  to her credit  managed to own  Lauer   replying  âWell  it was obviously an unfortunate incident. It kind of made me sad on two accounts. One was that I was very sad that we live in an age when someone takes a picture of another person in a vulnerable moment  and rather than delete it and do the decent thing  sells it. And Iâm sorry that we live in a culture that commodifies sexuality of unwilling participants  which brings us back to Les Mis  because thatâs what the character [Fantine] is. She is someone who is forced to sell sex to benefit her child because she has nothing and thereâs no social safety net so yeahâletâs get back to Les Mis.â

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Gerwig ? NEW YORK (AP) — Clearly not every actor suffered through lean times on  their  way up  but origin stories are full of tight-money moments nevertheless.
Patrick Wilson said recently on the red carpet that he once scraped for change at the Lincoln Tunnel.  Greta Gerwig  said  her  bank account was nearly drained when  she  drove past a Los Angeles movie theater with  her  face on the marquee.
 Gerwig 's tight-money moment came after  she  appeared in the 2010 film "Greenberg " a turning point.
"I was staying in L.A. for auditions and I had no money. I had very little in my bank account and I had used the last of it to get a rental car  and I remember driving past a marquee in Los Feliz — there's a cinema there — and my face was on it and I didn't have a place to stay that night "  Gerwig  said.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Justine Janis ? As frigid air temperatures and wintry conditions move into the area for the season  a key part of the work that Justine Janis does at the Evanston Public Library becomes even more critical: working with homeless individuals.
"As it started getting colder there were new faces  new people coming in " said  Justine Janis  an employee of Presence Behavioral Health who is assigned to the main library in downtown Evanston .
Since then  she 's become a go-to for librarians and other staff who typically are the first contact for patrons as they enter the halls of the library  whether in need for a place to warm up or assistance in another way.
At a training in October  where  Janis  discussed the needs of and best ways to communicate with homeless patrons  staff described  Janis  as a lynch pin who can help them connect visitors in need with the public and social services that can help them.
About 25 libraries nationwide employ social workers  and the small-but-growing group holds a regular conference call to discuss the issues they're facing and brainstorm ways to address them  among other concerns   Janis  said.
But it's harder to help homeless patrons when there are limited overnight shelters in Evanston to refer them to   Janis  said.  She  hopes the interfaith group will consider opening on nights that drop to 20 degrees  but knows finding volunteers to staff those overnight shifts is hard.
