Like OKC says, every site has its share of filth and novelties. Reddit is a massive site that gets 1.5 million unique page views (about 6-8 million total) per day and is bound to attract the idiots that you speak of. But because of its thread voting system, for a good part those idiotic posts get buried down below. That doesn't mean idiotic and sensational threads don't frequent Reddit, matter of fact there are tonnes of those posts. But along with those posts, are posts that bring a very intellectual group of discussion. The AMA (ask-me-anything) page, which has been frequented by the likes of Obama and other great personalities, is a testimony of Reddit's solid user base. To me it truly is the front page of internet.
I have no attachment with Reddit to clarify its image, but let's be fair on our disposition.
