What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Forrest Claypool ? Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Thursday continued to defend his handpicked Chicago Public Schools chief in the face of a searing inspector generalâs report that accuses district CEO Forrest Claypool of engaging in a âfull-blown cover-upâ to ward off an ethics probe.
 Claypool  ârepeatedly liedâ during the investigation by denying  he  had asked an attorney to alter a bill for legal advice on an ethics issue involving the districtâs top attorney  said Inspector General Nicholas Schuler  who has recommended that  Claypool  be fired. âIâm not looking at freaking bills  â Claypool  said in one interview with investigators  according to Schulerâs report.
âAt every turn in this matter   Claypool  kept making matters worse. And it appears that  his  decisions were driven by a clear desire to keep information harmful to  his  narrative from the Board  the OIG and the public â Schuler wrote.
 Claypool  met privately with school board members on Thursday and issued a lengthy statement in which  he  apologized for âmistakes in judgmentâ while defending  his  legacy and making it clear  he  disagrees with Schulerâs interpretation of CPS ethics policy.
âTo put this in perspective: This situation is about how I zealously tried to get Chicago students their fair share of state education dollars  after years and years of racial discrimination  and getting those kids the best possible legal representation â said  Claypool   who canceled a scheduled appearance at a North Side elementary school on Thursday. He did not directly address Schulerâs most damaging allegations.
Claypoolâs alleged cover-up turned an investigation into whether district attorney Ronald Marmer violated CPS ethics policies on contracts and business relationships into a call for  Claypoolâs  termination. Schuler also is recommending that Marmer be disciplined with a âlengthy suspension or even termination.â
Marmer is one of several of  Claypool 's former colleagues and past political donors who have won district jobs and consulting contracts. He has received annual payments of roughly $200 000 as severance from the law firm of Jenner & Block in addition to his CPS salary.
Three attorneys on a CPS ethics committee concluded Marmer couldnât manage the contract because his severance payments created a âbusiness relationshipâ with Jenner.. A fourth CPS attorney  Joseph Moriarty  was told of the committeeâs decision and agreed with it. Moriarty told Schuler that Marmer âbecame concerned by the decision â and was going to speak with  Claypool .
 Claypool  and Marmer then turned to former CPS general counsel Patrick Rocks for another opinion  Schuler said. In a conference call with  Claypool  and two other attorneys  Rocks said he agreed with CPS' legal consensus.
 So Claypool  and Marmer decided to ask labor attorney James Franczek for his take. Franczek also agreed with the previous opinions  which didnât go down well with  Claypool  and Marmer. He later sent an email to Moriarty that said âI think I am off the xmas card list.â
 Claypool  ultimately turned to political donor J. Timothy Eaton  who  according to Schulerâs report  served as a teacherâs assistant for a college course  Claypool  took while Eaton was a law student.
 âClaypool  attempted to paper over the opinions of the six attorneys with Eatonâs letter â Schuler wrote in his report. In addition  after the IGâs investigation had begun  Marmer complained about Franczekâs bill  which had âCPSâs Code of Ethicsâ and âethics issuesâ listed on it.  Claypool  asked Franczek to change the listings. Franczek then crossed out the entries and hand wrote âpersonnelâ and âpersonnel issuesâ in their place  the report says.
Franczek delivered the reworded invoice back to  Claypool  with a cover letter marked âFor Forrest Claypoolâs Eyes Only.â
In interviews with the IG during the investigation   Claypool â unequivocally  emphatically and repeatedlyâ denied  he  had asked Franczek to make changes to the bill  and said â he  would never have been involved in such lowly billing matters.â
But last month  in a letter to Schuler's office   Claypool  apologized for intervening to reword the invoice.  Claypool 's letter acknowledged Schuler had documents that contradicted the CEO's initial claim.
â He  turned 180 degrees from claiming certain memory to no memory at all â Schuler wrote in  his  report. â His  letter was designed to taint the Boardâs reception of the OIGâs final report by falsely portraying lies on two separate occasions as mere lapses of memory.â

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Benjamin Netanyahu ?

JERUSALEM â  Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu  is fighting for  his  political life as a dizzying array of scandals has engulfed  him    his  family and  his  inner circle.
Police last week announced they have sufficient evidence to indict  Netanyahu  for bribery  fraud and breach of trust in two separate cases. And this week  a new case emerged that threatens to be the most damaging of all  after one of his closest confidants agreed to testify against him in an influence-peddling scandal.
 Netanyahu  and  his  wife  Sara  have long been saddled with a penchant for expensive tastes and questionable use of public funds.  Netanyahu  has denied all wrongdoing and accuses the media of orchestrating a campaign aimed at ousting him from office.
But with those closest to him under intense police and public scrutiny  and his typically loyal political allies suddenly turning silent   Netanyahu  faces the stiffest challenge yet to  his  lengthy rule.
Police have recommended indicting  Netanyahu  over accepting nearly $300 000 in gifts from Hollywood mogul Arnon Milchan and Australian billionaire James Packer. Police say that in return for lavish gifts that included jewelry  expensive cigars and champagne   Netanyahu  had operated on Milchanâs behalf on U.S. visa matters  tried to legislate a generous tax break for  him  and sought to promote  his  interests in the Israeli media market.
Police have not commented on what Packer may have received  and  Netanyahu  has said everything  he  received were gifts from friends. Attorney General Avihai Mandelblit  a  Netanyahu  appointee  will make the final decision on whether to file charges â a process that is expected to take several months.
Police have also recommended indicting  Netanyahu  for supposedly offering a newspaper publisher legislation that would weaken  his  paperâs main rival in return for more favorable coverage.  Netanyahu  reportedly was recorded asking Arnon Mozes  the publisher of the Yediot Ahronot daily  for positive coverage in exchange for helping to weaken Israel Hayom  a free pro-Netanyahu newspaper that had cut into Yediotâs business.
Israel Hayom is financed by  Netanyahuâs  American billionaire friend Sheldon Adelson and largely serves as the prime ministerâs mouthpiece.  Netanyahu  has noted that a proposed law to weaken Israel Hayom never passed  and this week said  he  had even dissolved  his  coalition and called a new election in 2015 because of  his  opposition to the proposal.  The attorney general  will have to rule on this case as well.
This week two close  Netanyahu  confidants were arrested on suspicion of promoting regulation worth hundreds of millions of dollars to Israelâs Bezeq telecom company. In return  Bezeqâs popular news site  Walla  allegedly provided favorable coverage of  Netanyahu  and  his  family. Nir Hefetz  a former  Netanyahu  family spokesman  and Shlomo Filber  the former director of the Communications Ministry under  Netanyahu   are in custody as well as Bezeqâs controlling shareholder Shaul Elovitch  along with his wife  son and other top Bezeq executives.
Former journalists at the Walla news site have attested to being pressured to refrain from negative reporting of  Netanyahu .  Netanyahu   who held the communications portfolio until last year  has not yet been named as a suspect in the case but is expected to be questioned. Filber has reportedly agreed to turn state witness against  Netanyahu  in return for a lesser sentence.
 Netanyahu  has not been named as a suspect  but some of  his  closest associates have been implicated in probe related to a possible conflict of interest involving a $2 billion purchase of German submarines.  Netanyahu âs personal attorney  who is also  his  cousin  represented the German firm involved and is suspected of using  his  influence over the prime minister in return for a hefty cut of the deal.
As if  Netanyahu  didnât have enough problems  police said Tuesday that Hefetz  his former media adviser  is suspected of trying to bribe a judge in exchange for dropping a corruption case against the Israeli leaderâs wife. Hefetz is suspected of suggesting  through a middleman  to Judge Hila Gerstel in 2015 that she could be appointed attorney general if she dismissed a pending case against Sara Netanyahuâs excessive household spending.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Matt Cureton ? Peggy Humanick is probably thanking her lucky stars that  19-year-old Matt Cureton  was working at the Wendyâs in Fort Pierce  Fla.  on Monday.
Lucky for Peggy   Cureton  found her purse hanging off the back of a chair while  he  was bussing their table  and turned over the lost item to  his  manager  Betsy Hersha  to hold.
âI just did what I would hope everyone would do in that situation â  Cureton  told the Sun Sentinel. âIf I lost my wallet I would hope someone would return it rather than taking from it. I try to live by that standard â the golden rule.â
The Humanicks then hopped in their car and headed straight back to Fort Pierce  where  Cureton  and Hersha were waiting.
 Cureton  was rewarded $100 by the Humanicks for  his  honesty  which Hersha says she had to convince  him  to take.
âI hugged  him   I told  him  Iâm very proud of  him   use the money on  himself  â Hersha said.
âIt was very considerate of them  they were a very nice couple â  he  said. âThey didnât have to give me anything.â
 Cureton  said  he  is working at the fast food chain to save money for college.  He  told the Sun Sentinel all of the reward money will go into  his  college savings.
