questionable: This is correct. "Dubious" means "doubtful" or "questionable". The journalist is not sure that the prize of "America's fattest city" should be described as a "distinction". Other examples: "I had the dubious honour of shaking President Boosh's hand", or "His story about finding the money was dubious at best".
surprising: This is not correct. The term "surprising" describes something "unexpected" or "slightly shocking". Example: "Jane made a surprising revelation to everyone after the wedding". This does not share a similar meaning with "dubious".
horrible: This is incorrect. "Horrible" is too strong a word to replace "dubious", which means "doubtful" or "questionable".
tragic: This is incorrect. "Tragic" is too strong a word to replace "dubious", which means "doubtful" or "questionable".
