"czasopismo" is either Nominative ("To czasopismo jest drogie" = "This magazine is expensive") or Accusative ("Lubię to czasopismo" = "I like this magazine").
Here, the verb "lubić", which takes a direct object in Accusative, is negated. Whenever a verb that takes Accusative is negated, it takes Genitive ("czasopisma") instead. Other cases stay unchanged when negated.

My Polish polish-teacher said magazyn and so do the study book. .... and my Polish sister-in-law. I was confused, though, that the only option with magazyn used lubisz and not lubię... This was a tricky exercise
