William Foreman (for AP) posted a blog entry about riding a bicycle in Guangzhou. It would be a nice bit of blogging, except it was delivered between real news.
I've ran in to this before, McClatchy Newspapers had their blog in my China News feed too, but the connection was easier to make - if one searched for the newspaper they found a link to their China department, the head of which kept a blog. This got swept up by the feeds and delivered between news.
I don't really mind the personal opinions and anecdotes as content if they are clearly identifiable as such. In this case you might just think it's newswriting. As far as real news go, this one isn't.
If an AP editor would like to include this blog in their feed, please feel free to email me.
