"awful" seems like the likely steady state for the volunteer moderation of any large online community. Especially when the moderator pool is closed or otherwise self-selecting.
It's one of those jobs where you probably don't want to give it to people that really want to do it.
I think it's safe to say these are not the people you want moderating /r/news
(meanwhile, the top thread on at least my frontpage about it is now from /r/AskReddit, where they seem to be having a more reasonable discussion and are only deleting comments trying to doxx people)
