 Hi @jblara25,

 The issue you're probably running into is `Unfiltered HTML` - If you're
 inserting `<` into the `post_title` it's probably being interprated as
 HTML and stripped. When running in the cron, it has no user context (So no
 HTML by default) but when run manually it's being run as an Administrator
 (which has HTML capabilities).
 Encode your post_title or escape it and you'll probably find it'll stop
 happening.

 However - WordPress trac is for reporting bugs in the open-source software
 WordPress, this appears to be a plugin/custom code issue. For further
 support the volunteers in the Support forums:
 https://wordpress.org/support/ may be able to help.

 As this isn't obviously a core bug, I'm marking this as `invalid`. If
 you're able to reproduce the issue with a minimal code sniplet, please re-
 open it with further details which shows it's a core bug.
