"as, conjunction: used to indicate that something happens during the time when something else is taking place: Frank watched him as he ambled through the crowd | as she grew older, she kept more to herself."
So they're just trying to mention both big news items in the same headline. The casualty[sic] is all in your head.
- nocoder 9y agoMaybe, but "as" also can be used in place of "because or since". Here is another headline from Reuters "Uber's finance head leaves; company's quarterly loss narrows". In my opinion, both the headlines provide a different slant to the same story. P.S:- We both misspelled "causality", what a "casualty" :)
