"While facts, reasons, etc. can be expressed in words, they are not concepts that inherently refer to instances of language, as are stories, news, etc."
1. In the sentence above, is "as" used to mean "though"?
2. Does the sentence imply that "as stories, news are not concepts that inherrently refer to instances of language, they(=facts and reasons) are not"?
I'm so confused about the sentence. Thanks a lot.
