Hi,

Maybe I did not understood well, but, as you mentioned "multiple headers", have you a list of header names or you intend to look at any of them? I think I would do like this: 
when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
        "/news*" - 
        "/weather*" {
            foreach name [list MyHeader1 MyHeader2 MyHeaderN] {
                switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::header $name]] {
                    "*www.yahoo.com*" { 
                        HTTP::redirect "https://www.yahoo.com/login.aspx=0"
                        return
                    }
                    "*www.google.com*" { 
                        HTTP::redirect "https://www.google.com/login.aspx=0"
                        return
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

or this for any header names:

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
        "/news*" - 
        "/weather*" {
            foreach name [HTTP::header names] {
                switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::header $name]] {
                    "*www.yahoo.com*" { 
                        HTTP::redirect "https://www.yahoo.com/login.aspx=0"
                        return
                    }
                    "*www.google.com*" { 
                        HTTP::redirect "https://www.google.com/login.aspx=0"
                        return
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

I'm not sure if that was what you wanted, anyway, I hope it helps you in some way.
