Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Hope Hicks ? Updated at 7:08 p.m.  ET
White House communications director Hope Hicks  President Trump's longest-serving aide   is resigning and will depart in the next few weeks  the White House says.
In a White House that has set records for staff turnover (and it isn't even close)  the departure of  Hicks  still came as a shock.
Hicks  who has been working with the president for three years  managed to stay in his orbit even after many others had been pushed out. President Trump called  Hicks  "outstanding."
Earlier this month  Hicks  was deeply involved in the White House's botched handling of domestic abuse allegations against a former top aide to the president. But a White House official insists  Hicks ' decision to resign wasn't related to either of those matters.
Another person close to  Hicks  told NPR the resignation has been in the works for weeks.
"There are no words to adequately express my gratitude to President Trump "  Hicks  said in the statement. "I wish the President and his administration the very best as he continues to lead our country."
 Hicks  joined the Trump organization in 2014 — recruited by Ivanka Trump  who was impressed by work  Hicks  had done for her clothing line while working at a New York public relations firm.  Hicks  was then pulled into the Trump campaign before there even was a campaign  becoming de facto press secretary while initially she continued doing work for the Trump Organization.

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ben McAdoo ? Ben McAdoo  clearly is going to go down swinging.
âUntil I had all the information  I was going to err on the high side of trusting the player  protecting the player â  McAdoo  said Wednesday.
Giants generally agree with  Ben McAdoo  suspending Janoris Jenkins
McAdoo  however  canât be so removed from reality not to understand that there was a better way to handle that situation than lying that Jenkins was âexcused for personal reasons â when he in fact hadnât even spoken with the man. And  McAdoo  also has to understand that when he stands there on Wednesday and makes no apology for his premeditated mistake  it is implicit that he most certainly would do it again.
Of course   McAdoo  hopes  he  wonât have to repeat this song and dance  but then again   he  admitted suspending two players in three weeks was ânot something that going into the season Iâd ever thought Iâd have to do â so who knows? Bad things usually hit in threes  anyway  right?
And  McAdoo  alluded to the fact that  he  is still not confident  he  controls the narrative of  his  team  as much as  he  desperately tries. When asked if  he  would discipline Eli Apple and Paul Perkins â who also missed Mondayâs practice due to travel reasons but had called  unlike Jenkins  to alert the coach â  McAdoo  answered:

Sure enough  Apple later was asked if  he  was being disciplined and said: âSomething like that.â
Now  say this for McAdooâs indefinite suspension of Jenkins  which defensive captain Jonathan Casillas said is expected to only last one week: Whatever Jenkins did to earn it  it was bad enough that not a single Giants teammate came anywhere close to defending  him  on Wednesday.
Some actually went as far as using Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie  suspended in Week 6 for walking out of the facility  as an example of a much less severe transgression than whatever Jenkins did. Casillas actually said âhopefully thereâs no spill-over in emotions coming from (Jenkins) or Coach  McAdoo  next weekâ when the corner returns  so it sounds like there could have been a heated confrontation or exchange  even if by phone.
Strong safety Landon Collins defended  McAdoo  and flat-out said the head coach hasnât lost the team and agreed with the coachâs comment that DRC and Jenkins are âisolated incidents.â
âWe have not lost respect for him â Collins said of  McAdoo . âWe continue growing with him and trying to be a great team and stay(ing) together  because our back is against the wall right now. We canât fight against each other. If we fight against each other  things are definitely going to go bad.â
âWhether I support  Ben McAdoo  or not  heâs the head coach and I think heâs doing what he thinks is best for the team â Casillas said. âAnd I want Jackrabbit to be here  everybody does  but he violated the team rule and coach had the call.â
 McAdoo  continued to find ways on Wednesday  though  to confound with contradictory or unintelligible rationalizations  including  his  argument for why  he  feels  he  hasnât lost the defensive backs room: âWe had a good day of practice â  he  said.

Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity John Arena ? Northwest Side Ald.  John Arena  filed a complaint with the Civilian Office of Police Accountability alleging Chicago police officers may have violated the department’s code of conduct by making racially charged online comments about a controversial Jefferson Park apartment development plan that includes affordable housing.
 Arena  made the complaint in mid-January  amid a long-running fight over the project in which supporters have claimed opponents are trying to keep minorities from moving into the bungalow belt neighborhood.
The 45th Ward alderman said his office had presented the City Hall inspector general’s office with numerous examples of people identifying themselves as police officers in their online profiles or appearing in profile photos in police uniforms while using “racially charged language” to oppose the building on social media. The inspector general’s office told  Arena  to take the complaints to COPA because it potentially involved police officers.
 Arena  said he didn’t do any kind of investigation of whether the 31 are  in fact  police officers  saying “that will be up to COPA.”  Arena ’s office declined to provide examples of the comments it forwarded to COPA  citing the ongoing investigation.
On Friday  the Chicago Fraternal Order of Police posted a letter on its website from attorney Timothy Grace to  Arena   saying if the alderman doesn’t withdraw the complaint  the union would sue him on behalf of any police officers who turn up among the comments he submitted.
The letter says officers spoke out in opposition to the project while off duty and that there are congestion issues and other “race neutral” concerns. The letter states that  Arena ’s “decision to threaten their job security and their reputations for expressing their opinions appears retaliatory and motivated as a means to stifle their opposition.”
 Arena  declined to comment on the police union letter. After he filed the complaint   Arena  said that he wanted the police oversight agency to determine whether the comments breached department rules.

Answer:
Positive
