Sounds more like the data type expected IS 'json' but the data coming in is not valid JSON so it gets discarded. With the data type interpreted as text, it's returned as-is.
It would be a good idea to open the URL providing this data in your browser and examine the data, perhaps pasting it into http://jsonlint.com to see if it's valid or not.
