I mean Big Mac didn't seem nearly as upset about being forcibly brainwashed into loving Cheerilee and nearly marrying her and that was kind of more personally significant than just being the subject of a trashy news story

I think the (speaking) role reversal between Applejack and Big Mac was to highlight exactly how bad the trio had screwed up. The key difference between this and the hearts and hooves day thing was that with that they at least meant well. Not so much here.
