Er, how? There would need to be some sort of network connection built in as well.

It seems to me to be just expensive vanity to have the display, unless they intend to use it somehow to sell future issues.
I suppose it is vanity. Esquire has been one of the forces defining magazine design over the years, and an assortment of folks involved are in the Art Director's Hall of Fame. They are coming up on their 75th anniversary, and want to do something that upholds their status as an innovator in magazine publishing.
