Has this article been posted during a previous run perhaps? Fetchnews
will try again on the next run, detect the article was duplicate and
then drop it...

...check the PID in the log and see if you've seen "1 articles posted"
previously. I don't currently see how fetchnews would successfully post
an article without incrementing the "articles posted" counter, so it
must've somehow skipped the post.
