Here's a version of your script that clearly identifies a problem, and it's got me stumped also.
I've been using text item delimiters for years but have never seen this one.
It seems that there is something in the text itself that AppleScript doesn't like, or maybe it's the TID you're using. I have no idea what it could be.
What's very strange is that if you build your list using "as string," as in the example below, it seems to work, even though the class is already string.
For now, that seems to be a good workaround, but it's obviously a bug, maybe a new bug (it's new to me).
Perhaps Chris Nebel or one of the AppleScript experts has some insight.

-----------------
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ", " --tvpi2crontab's newline -- crlf
set rawText to "<td class=titl>, Capture_Jan_21_2007__03_00_5-1_AM.m2t, </td>,
<td class=time>, Sun, 03:33AM, </td>, <td class=date>, 1/21/07,
</td>, <td class=chnl>, *, </td>, <td class=leng>, 0, </td>,
<td class=descr>, <a class=button href='cgi-bin/play.sh?2'
target=_blank>play</a>, <a class=button href='cgi-bin/delete.sh?2'
target=_blank>delete</a>, <div class=epInfo id='ei2'>, , <p>, , </div>, </td>,
</tr>"
set rawText to every text item of rawText
set html to {"<tr>"}
set myHtml to {"<tr>"}
repeat with thisString in rawText
set end of html to thisString
set end of myHtml to thisString as string
class of thisString
log the result
end repeat
html
log the result
myHtml
log the result
(count html)
log the result
(count myHtml)
log the result
set HtmlString to (html as string) -- OMM this is truncated
log the result
set myHtmlString to (myHtml as string) --OMM this is not
log the result
HtmlString
log the result
myHtmlString
log the result
