While I see the argument that this the title is link-bait, I don't think they are necessarily trying to overstate it's significance -- how would you title an article like this without it sounding like link-bait?

It's just showing some of the backlash to Apple's decision. It may not be a significant percentage, but who knows what other potential purchasers may follow suit.

"... how would you title an article like this without it sounding like link-bait?"

Oh, I don't know, maybe by avoiding language like San Francisco turns its back on Apple ...

That's not an answer to the question. The question was "how would you title it if not like that?", so answering "not like that" is just begging the question.
I submitted the same subject some hours earlier and not sure that title(taken directly from WSJ) is any better.
