Clearly the CTA should refund their money if they canceled the contract and yanked the ads.
Take-Two has a good case for free speech infringement, and for breaking of a contract.

- I live in Chicago and don't exactly hold CTA in high esteem. It's a lovely dumping ground for politicians, especially if a given employee is too limited to work in city hall, or the county "administration." I would rather take a kidnap-taxi in Mexico City than parts of the blue line using 50 year old tracks with zero actual maintenance.
