Cheaper? Yes. More effective? Debatable. If a news organization is just trying to put articles online, then sure, that approach works.

Given how long it takes to create truly polished software of any kind, starting a CMS project from thin air doesn't make sense, you're hundreds of thousands of developer hours behind existing projects on day one.
