Some of my local news stations have terrible websites that take forever to load, yet those websites were probably cutting edge at some point.
Nah, most local news sites came online as garbage and will never rise above that status. The cleverest of them came online as bare bones, no frills websites that the affordable local website developer they hired could actually maintain.

More likely they aren’t given the budget they have requested.
They are also probably busy doing regular IT things like maintaining the IT infrastructure.
Local news stations don’t really exist in my country so I don’t know how many employees they usually have but it’s possible they don’t even have an IT department.

Oh, I wouldn’t doubt that either
