Semi-related, something that kind of irritates me is the usage of "as" in online newspapers headlines: "$Something-is-happening as $Something-else-is-happening" It's usually written in a way that might be suggesting a direct link between the two things to a layman, but often there's none, other than the fact those two things are happening around the same time. This can be disorienting when the reader is not familiar with the subject discussed, and lead them to wrong conclusions.
