I also wonder this same thing. I was asked to whiteboard fizzbuzz in pseudocode during an interview, and I actually made a slight mistake, I can't remember what it was now, but I think it would have duplicated the "FizzBuzz" lines. Overall, the accuracy of my 5 minute solution had little to no insight into how I would perform as a developer. Now, if they were given time to actually compile code that ran a fizz buzz program and test it out before submitting it and STILL got it wrong...that might be questionable. But I think we need more information to really see if it was a bad assessment of their abilities or truly "bad" developers.
