Am I being overly picky with the journalism here?

Headline: "Circuit Of The Americas CEO Out After Disastrous Rainy Austin Formula One Weekend"

portion of article text: "Thus, it would be unfair to say that Dial’s departure is a direct result of this year’s grand prix being a flop. The circuit—saddled with many dirt parking lots as well as inadequate infrastructure leading to it—appears to have done as much as it could in light of such a brutal storm, such as pulling in additional parking shuttles to encourage more fans to park in paved lots off-site and allowing fans to trade in Saturday tickets for Sunday ones after the day was shortened and qualifying was rained out."

Doesn't the headline imply something that is really the opposite of cause and effect?
