question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Michael Cohen is Positive . "In a private transaction in 2016  I used my own personal funds to facilitate a payment of $130 000 to Ms. Stephanie Clifford "  Michael Cohen  said in a statement. "Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford  and neither reimbursed me for the payment  either directly or indirectly."
Just weeks before the 2016 election   Cohen  reportedly created a private LLC to pay Clifford  otherwise known as Stormy Daniels  following an alleged July 2006 encounter with Trump  The Wall Street Journal reported in January
Following initial reports last month that  Cohen  had made the payment   he  said in a statement that Trump "vehemently denies" any encounter between the two.
In January   the organization Common Cause filed complaints with the Federal Election Commission and the Justice Department  alleging that the reported payment to Clifford constituted a campaign finance violation. But on Tuesday   Cohen 's statement denied that accusation and said the monetary exchange was "lawful" and "not a campaign contribution."
"The payment to Ms. Clifford was lawful  and was not a campaign contribution or a campaign expenditure by anyone "  Cohen  said.
 Cohen  also said  he  filed a reply with the FEC  but that filing will not be public until the agency has resolved the matter.
When asked why  he  made the payment   Cohen  told CNN: "Just because something isn't true doesn't mean that it can't cause you harm or damage. I will always protect Mr. Trump."
answer:
yes


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Larry Ellison is Neutral . These American billionaires also share a few quirks: Microsoft founder Bill Gates  Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg   Oracle founder Larry Ellison  dropped out of college. Jeff Bezos  Larry Page and Sergey Brin all went to Montessori schools  where children are encouraged to think independently and creatively rather than following traditional rules. It seems  too  that billionaires really like houses in Hawaii.
As is the case with the richest women in America  the richest people in America donate a lot of money to causes they care about. Some of the men on this list have donated hundreds of millions into research designed to improve human lifespan and eradicate dangerous diseases  such as Alzheimerâs disease and cancer. Warren Buffett  Gates  Zuckerberg  and  Ellison  have gone a step further and promised to give their fortunes away as part of The Giving Pledge  an initiative designed by Buffett and Gates to encourage billionaires to funnel their vast wealth to philanthropy.
6.  Larry Ellison

 Ellison   73 â another college dropout â co-founded the software firm Oracle in 1977. In addition to owning about 25% of the company  he also owns the entire Hawaiian island of Lanai  a sailing team and even an entire tennis tournament  the New York Times reports.
While known for living large (the billionaire owns a 288-foot yatch)   Ellison  started out with modest ambitions.  His  parents  who adopted  him  when  he  was nine months old  wanted  him  to be a doctor  but  he  left school when  he  realized medicine didnât interest  him .  He  moved to California and worked as a computer programmer and a rock-climbing instructor and river guide  according to the Times. At this point   Ellison  said  he  was âpretty happy with  his  life.â
But after a series of jobs   he  became part of a company working to establish a new type of software database. That company would become Oracle  now one of the largest software companies in the world.
 Ellison   like other titans on this list  is interested in extending human lifespan  and has given over $330 million for research into aging and related diseases.
Four-times divorced   Ellison  has two adult children and calls  his  $70 million Woodside  Calif. estate home. However   Ellison âs massive real estate portfolio means  he  never spends much time in one place.  He  owns additional properties in Japan  San Francisco  Malibu  Lake Tahoe and Rhode Island.
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jones is Negative . I donât often include a prospect in the waivers column in back-to-back week  but can we address the elephant in the room? After two weeks   Jones  looks like a better running back than Ty Montgomery â before the rib injury. There. Said it.
Look  in a game-of-the-week matchup that figured to be a seesaw battle  his 125 yards on the ground was huge. The rookie averaged 6.6 yards on 19 carries  and that figured wasnât skewed by one or two big runs â  his  longest went for 22 yards.
If  Jones  keeps it up  can the Packers afford to sit the hot hand for a player that could be nursing broken ribs all season. Montgomery just became the anointed starter this season  so itâs not like  he âs entrenched. This is one of those situations where you take flier on a prospective starter.
 Jones  is still available in 43 percent of Yahoo and 66 percent of NFL.com leagues.
answer:

no
