It looks like it has to do with the way the RSS feed is created. The recipe I used was created by Darko Miletic and Sujata Raman. The Calibre wiki help file says you can make a request to have a recipe for your newspaper to be added to the collection here. I don't know how long it takes for one to become available. I couldn't find one for the Houston Chronicle though feeds for a lot of other major papers and magazines are already built in.

If you're a programmer there seems to be a lot of information on customizing feeds but it's all over my head.

You can also post in the Calibre forum and maybe Kovid can provide some pointers.
