Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ryan Lizza ? The New Yorker cut ties with  Ryan Lizza  over sexual misconduct.
 Lizza  was one of the magazine's most prominent journalists.
 He  said  he  was "dismayed" at The New Yorker's decision.
The New Yorker on Monday announced that it had cut ties with  the high-profile political reporter Ryan Lizza  because of what  it  characterized as "improper sexual conduct."
"The New Yorker recently learned that  Ryan Lizza  engaged in what we believe was improper sexual conduct " the magazine said in a statement. "We have reviewed the matter and  as a result  have severed ties with  Lizza . Due to a request for privacy  we are not commenting further."
CNN  where  Lizza  is a political analyst  also said on Monday that he would not appear on the network while it investigates.
"We have just learned of the New Yorker's decision " a CNN representative said. " Ryan Lizza  will not appear on CNN while we look into this matter."
In a statement   Lizza  said  he  was "dismayed that The New Yorker has decided to characterize a respectful relationship with a woman I dated as somehow inappropriate."
But the lawyer representing an alleged victim of  Lizza 's misconduct pushed back on his statement.
"Although she desires to remain confidential and requests that her privacy be respected  in no way did  Mr. Lizza âs misconduct constitute a 'respectful relationship' as  he  has now tried to characterize it " Douglas Wingdor said in a statement. "Our client reported Mr. Lizzaâs actions to ensure that he would be held accountable and in the hope that by coming forward she would help other potential victims."
 Lizza  has for years been one of the most high-profile political journalists in America  writing lengthy profiles about former President Barack Obama and others.
Earlier this year   Lizza  reported on an expletive-filled conversation he had with Anthony Scaramucci  President Donald Trump's communications director. Days after the report  Scaramucci departed the White House; he had been in the position for one week.

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Bubba Wallace ? It was Petty who hired  Wallace  last October to drive  his  famous No. 43 stock car  making  him  the first black driver to race regularly at NASCARâs top level since Scott in 1971. In fact  Scott had been the only African-American to race regularly at NASCARâs top level.
When Almirola  then Pettyâs driver  was injured last season   Wallace  replaced  him  for four races  doing better in each race. Petty had hired  Wallace  before Almirola even jumped to Stewart-Haas Racing in the offseason  taking Danica Patrickâs spot.
Petty said he hired  Wallace  because of his vast potential  not his skin color. But diversity is important to NASCAR  which is trying to appeal to younger fans to fortify sagging TV ratings and live attendance. Essentially   Wallace  replaced Patrick  who wrecked Sunday in what she said would be her last NASCAR race  finishing 35th.
Patrick never finished in the top five in 191 top-series races  but  Wallace  can top that now. He received a good-luck call before the race from Hammerinâ Hank Aaron. The four-time Formula One champion  Lewis Hamilton  who is black  also tweeted his best wishes.
âLuckily I was sitting down when I was replying to him â  Wallace  said Sunday of Hamilton. âI think I was taking a golf cart ride out to an appearance and I replied back. Really cool and really special for Hank Aaron also to call right there before was really special  and just knowing that people are tuning in and hopefully noticing the new face and the new change that's coming to NASCAR and they get behind it and support it. Just exciting.â
Even before he finished third in a qualifying race Thursday   Wallace  was a popular person around Daytona.  He  then ran near the front all afternoon in a race that was splotched by three big wrecks.  Wallace  avoided them all and won a joust with Denny Hamlin to finish second.
The next race is Sunday at Atlanta  an event that is much less prestigious than Daytona. But NASCAR appears to have some traction. Dillon  27  is one of several emerging young drivers  but  Wallace  has a unusual background for a stock-car driver.  He  tweeted last year  âYouâre not going to stop hearing about `the black driverâ for years.â
On Sunday   he  said  âI'm really looking forward to Atlanta. Don't know what the hell we'll have there because it's all new for us. I know this will carry over to Atlanta and be good.â

Answer: Positive


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Randy Bryce ? Randy Bryce  -- a Democratic organizer and union iron worker who's never held elected office -- gained national attention with a viral video that debuted last month announcing  his  congressional bid. The video  which pitches Bryce as a "working man" and focuses on health care  racked up nearly a half-million views in the less than two weeks it's been online and drew attention from left leaning activists and national media.
"Let's trade places   Paul Ryan " Bryce  said in the ad. "You can come work the iron  and I'll go to DC. "
"I've just had enough. People are fed up "  Bryce  said in a phone interview. "It's just a really crooked place in Washington  DC."
Even with the attention the video has attracted   Bryce 's odds of unseating the Wisconsin Republican at this point appear extremely low. While polling for congressional districts is historically scarce and unreliable  Ryan has never lost a race. In fact  he's never won with less than by double-digit margins. He bested his opponent by nearly 35 points in 2016. Ryan has also been a prolific fundraiser  raising millions not only for himself but to preserve his party's control of the House
When asked to respond to  Bryce 's announcement video  Ryan campaign spokesman Zack Roday said   "Bryce  is a liberal agitator in Wisconsin. He is not a political novice; he is a three time failed candidate who has been repeatedly rejected by southern Wisconsin voters for his far left positions."
It is true that  Bryce  doesn't have a great record of success in running for office.  His  two campaigns to serve in the state legislature were unsuccessful  as was  his  2013 bid for the Racine County Board of Education.
The fundraising arm for House Republicans also made note of this point. The National Republican Campaign Committee said  Bryce 's "petty attacks against Paul Ryan will be rejected by voters in the same fashion that his three former failed campaigns have been."
But after a spring where Republicans in Congress struggled to find enough support to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act with a GOP alternative  perhaps it's no surprise that  Bryce 's video  which centers on  his  own difficult experiences with health care  took off online.
"It's just a cruel way to govern "  Bryce  told CNN in reference to the latest Senate Republican health bill.
Set to an emotional soundtrack   Bryce 's announcement video opens with a clip of Trump touting Ryan's work on the Republican health care plan. Then it moves to Ryan talking about the bill. Panoramic shots of "southeastern Wisconsin" -- where Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District is located -- fill the screen.
The ad features  Bryce 's mother who talks about  her  fight with multiple sclerosis and how the GOP health plan would affect  her .
Though  she  has been able to get treatment   Bryce  described the helplessness  he 's felt in dealing with  her  condition.
"There were some times when I'm in a room next to  her   and  she 's in a room just screaming in pain  you know  and I'm like  'I can't do anything. I don't know what to do. I can't help  her .' "
Bryce himself  has faced difficult medical conditions. When  he  left the Army after serving abroad in Honduras   he  was diagnosed with prostate cancer.  He  didn't have insurance at the time  but considers  himself  lucky because  he  was able to get care through an experimental treatment at a nearby medical school.
 He  beat the cancer  but  his  mom continues to struggle with MS  and  his  father -- who was not in the ad -- lives in an assisted living facility with Alzheimer's.
Bryce's son  Ben  also drew mentions in the video and at the first campaign rally.  Bryce  calls  him  "a miracle" because doctors had told  Bryce  that  he  likely wouldn't be able to have children as a result of  his  prostate cancer.

Neutral
