Legal Question in Intellectual Property in New York

Re: Isn't this against anti-trust laws?

An advertising medium such as an upscale 4-color glossy publication does not usually run afoul of antitrust law by not accepting advertising from all comers. A privately held (meaning not the government) publication can accept (or not accept) advertising from whomever it pleases unless the publication is so powerful within its industry that its selectivity unfairly prevents other, unselected entities from having a level playing field (that may run afoul of the antitrust law). If this publication is published by a government agency, that is more problematical because of constitutional controls on the government that do not exist on private enterprise.
