I'm not sure you can entirely blame management for that. As reddit has grown, it has transitioned to focus more and more on facebook-style "let me tell you a story about my day" sort of posts, where the aim of submitting content is to get attention from others rather than to inform others. This seems to be a fairly common trend as online communities move to the mainstream, the fact that Ellen Pao is in charge for it is just coincidence.
