The infamous cover
HOOK COVER

Sorry, but both the photo on the cover and the main photo for the cover story are ridiculous. [December 18 cover story: "Person of the Year: Gary O'Connell– The CEO of Charlottesville"]

Who wants to look at people's pores on their faces? Then inside it is even more of a close-up!

Give us a decent cover photo with a complete head shot at least or a nice outdoors image with him. He is a decent looking fellow; do the man justice, please.

All I see is a nice, warm, Hollywood smile. I believe he is married, so flattery will get you no where.
