Go Rockstar Go: Grand Theft IV

In today's Reuters report, Take-Two is in a scuffle with Chicago's Transit Authority.  Apparently the CTA things that the advertisements on the bus sides and in transit spaces isn't such a good idea.  Because??

I don't know anyone who doesn't already know what GTA is all about, billboard or not.  The advertising doesn't seem to be in bad taste - and there certaintly have been more objectionable movies advertised on sides of buses.

I sympathize with the desire not to glorify what GTA depicts in its game, but... it's a video game (and not one for little kids either  (Rated "M" for Mature).
