1. Is the idea that the primary costs for such news sources are hosting costs?

2. And that if news sites offered the text for free but paywalled images they'd be more sustainable than they are now?

1. In the direct relation of the cost of the website, yes. Mainly in news sites like CNN, Fox, MSNBC. The articles are usually already written for TV. 2. As profitable? No. Sustainable? Yes.
