Tom is quite right that the advertisers control the magazines in most cases. This is nothing new. I remember when I was a teenager in the 1950s reading a chapter on this in one of my parents' books, "Counterfeit: Not Your Money But What It Buys" -- don't remember the author. The book was from the 1930s or '40s.
It was by Arthur Kallet, copyright 1935. Amazing how quickly you can answer trivia like this on the Internet with a good search engine.
