The author asserts that the image qualifies fair use for the following reasons:

Rockstar North and Rockstar Games have not release Degenatron-related media into public domain.
The image is necessary to describe an advertising of the Degenatron video game; nothing else.
The screenshot is not intended to hinder the copyright owner's ability to sell the related game, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
This texture was screen-captured from a Windows application, and thus qualifies as a screenshot.
