headlines

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'news flashes' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'furrowed brows' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.

'causing' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for headlines that I've seen before include "Newspaper features" , "Captions of newspaper articles" , "News stories" , "linked with furrowed brows?" , "Starts of newspaper articles" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
