You can't buy BT in newsagents in the UK anymore. Notice that there is no cover price, I think this is because it is all paid for advertising. I pick it up in lounges for free, but if you read it regularly you will notice that they have a string of stock phrases to cover mediocrity: perfectly adequate for this length of flight, offers an efficient business like service (as opposed to a business class service?).

The writing is very formulaic, on dinner choices it always seems to be "I opted for the.... ...braised concrete, which was perfectly adequate for this length of flight..."

I think the magazine is run by travel fanatics, as a hobby. They also seem to spend a lot of their time trawling Flyertalk for stories here.
