While I agree that this article doesn't come right out and say "games cause violence", but check out the title of the article. Many things were stolen, but the title directly links the Xbox to the murders. This is called correlative causation. The author makes the correlation and then allows the reader to insinuate the causation for themselves. Its used often in journalism, unfortunately, and is a an especially useful tool for those that make "dosumentaries" such as our dear frind Mr. Moore.

Basically its a way to link to subjects together without actually saying that they are linked.
