SEC Launches Take-Two Investigation

crecente writes "Take-Two, already the subject of a Grand Jury inquiry, is now being 'informally investigated' by the Securities and Exchange Commission. This latest investigation looks at stock option grants made by the company from Jan. 1997 to the present. Just how many investigations can a publically traded company handle before their stock turns to worthless paste?"

    "It's okay folks, this is just an informal investigation (tm) so just, you know... go about your usual illegal activities, or whatever. Just pretend I'm not here."

    The "article" doesn't say hardly anything about what the news is. Does anyone have a link with some details, like what kinda stock-granting issues are alleged? I initially felt bad for doodling on my Take-Two stock certificates, but they're probably worth more as artwork now...
