Because we're used to it?  Worcester is extremely under-served, 
especially on TV where most Boston TV reports from surrounding towns are 
described as happening in "western Massachusetts".  Unfortunately, 
Worcester's two TV stations are Spanish-language and "religious".  
Springfield stations do not cover Worcester either.

I listen to WTAG for local news at the top of the hour, then switch to 
WBZ.  If I hit the button at the right time, I'm even spared the new CBS 
sounder.
