Black Out

In this dictionary, definition 2b for "black out" means to cause a place to become dark. Then I found this sentence on the web:

"Photos reveal blacked-out windows and ammunition stash in the room where Adam Lanza plotted school massacre of 26 innocents"

A window is not a place. So, is "blacked-out windows" wrong? Would "blacked-out room" be better?
