This is caused by media sites/blogs abusing block quote typesetting for pull quotes. If the quote is in the text of your article elsewhere, it should be placed off to the side as a pull quote, outside of the natural reading order.

This article's author properly used block quote positioning, but our minds have been trained to skip it as we assume it is a pull quote.
