It may not be traditional metal, but is there any particular reason people look down on it so much?
I can't speak for anyone else, but I just find a lot of nu-metal boring. Like any genre, it's not all bad. There are songs here and there that I like, but I can't think of any nu-metal albums that are great all the way through. To me that doesn't speak very well of it as a style of music.
