Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Deborah Rutter ? âThe Honors are the greatest weekend of the year  and it is also the bane of our existence  â Deborah Rutter  said with a laugh. For the president of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts  the annual Kennedy Center Honors  airing on CBS on Dec. 26 and honoring dancer Carmen de Lavallade  rapper LL Cool J  television producer and writer Norman Lear and singers Gloria Estefan and Lionel Richie  is a welcome national spotlight on the memorial to the late president. But thatâs all anyone seems to know about the the white jewel box on the Potomac.
âWe really like to think about the other 364 days of the year  and all of the programming that happens on those days â  Rutter  told me in the latest episode of âCape Up.â âWhat I love about being here at the nationâs cultural center is that we have really a mandate to welcome all of the performing arts. It is not just a performing arts center for one assumed art form or another.â
I bet you didnât know that hip hop was one of those art forms at the Kennedy Center and that Q-Tip is its artistic director. âThis is a first â  Rutter  said. âAnd as far as I know  there is no other artistic director for hip-hop â¦ anywhere in probably the world. And weâre very proud to have Q-Tip here leading  guiding and inspiring us.â
While she didnât need much convincing   Rutter  allowed that there could be others who might â for fear of what it could mean for the other arts. âJust because we are bringing in more programming that includes hip-hop artists  it does not mean that weâre doing less dance or less international programming or less of the National Symphony Orchestra â she said. âIt just means that weâre doing more  that we have thrown open the doors of the Kennedy Center  and we are ensuring that all are welcome here.â

There are nine performance spaces at the Kennedy Center that are in use all year. In addition to the orchestra and  the Washington National Opera  Rutter  noted the 46-year-old institution has âa magnificent  world-recognized ballet season. We have contemporary dance  we have jazz  we have a huge jazz series  chamber music  recitals  comedy  international programming.â
Listen to the podcast to hear  Rutter  talk further about the work of the Kennedy Center and how it fits into the cultural life of Washington.  She  goes into what it is like to be the local performing arts center for members of Congress  foreign diplomats and âquite a number of justices from the Supreme Court.â But  Rutter  insists none of those constituencies tries to exert influence over programming.
âHere at the center we have no limits on what we could present â  Rutter  told me. âThe problems I always describe is how to say no  when to say no  and how to not be really  truly overwhelmed by the extraordinary limitless richness of what happens here.â

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Warren Buffett ? Warren Buffett  and Bill Gates have both founded highly profitable companies  so it's safe to say that  they 've made quite a few smart business decisions. In a 1998 panel discussion with students at the University of Washington's business school  the two billionaires pinpointed the best business decisions they ever made.
 Buffett  said  his  best business decision was simply starting a career in investing because  he  enjoys what  he  does. Luckily  said  Buffett   this has worked out well for  him .
"You'll see plenty of times when you get chances to do things that just shout at you "  he  said. "When that happens  you have to take a big swing."
Alluding to  his  own experiences as an investor   Buffett  said that when these opportunities arise  you must act quickly. There's no time to be "reading a book on the theory of diversification "  he  said.

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Mike Freeman ? Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman  declined to confirm the grand jury  citing the secrecy of any such proceeding  but said  he  still intends to make  his  own decision on whether to charge the officer.
Justine Ruszczyk Damond  a 40-year-old life coach  was killed by Minneapolis Officer Mohamed Noor just minutes after she called police to report a possible sexual assault in the alley behind her home. Noor hasn't been charged  and  Freeman  said weeks ago that more investigating was needed in the case. He also told activists in a recorded conversation that he didn't have enough evidence and investigators "haven't done their job."
In recent years   Freeman  has said he would no longer use grand juries to decide whether officers would be charged in police shootings  saying he would make those decisions himself to provide more accountability and transparency.
Marsh Halberg  a criminal defense attorney who is not connected to this case  said it could give  Freeman  a strategic advantage by requiring witnesses to testify under oath and lock down witness testimony in advance of a possible trial. Still  Halberg said  it's unclear whether a grand jury can be used strictly for investigative purposes on the state level  and it's not something he has seen in his 40-year career.
Halberg said  Freeman  could be using the grand jury as "a tactical reason to get evidence from people who are maybe refusing to testify."
Robert Bennett  an attorney for the Damond family  said he and the family support  Freeman 's use of the grand jury and think it's the right thing to do. Bennett said it's disappointing that subpoenas were necessary to get witnesses  including police officers  to be truthful.
Noor's attorney  Thomas Plunkett  issued a statement saying  Freeman 's comments "leave me unclear as to what he is doing." He added that "it would be unethical and potentially unlawful to comment publicly on this development. Worse â any public comment would jeopardize the fairness of an important judicial function."
The grand jury process has been criticized for its secrecy and because it rarely results in charges against officers.  Freeman  broke precedent with the standard practice of using grand juries to decide charges in police shootings after the November 2015 death of Jamar Clark.  Freeman  noted at that time that grand juries had been used to consider police shootings in  his  county for more than 40 years and no officers had been indicted.
