This would suggest that they do stock or have stocked every newspaper available, which is obviously nonsense. Have they been "limiting access" to the dozens of publications that have never been stocked? The second part (encourage / force customers to read what they want them to read) is again nonsense because hardly anyone buys newspapers on trains anyway.

Yes it's a publicity stunt, that's pretty obvious, but again... Private enterprise. They can sell what they want, advertise what they want, and pull whatever publicity stunt they want. I'm amazed how many people are all for free market capitalism when it suits them, and then dead against it when it doesn't.
