I usually watch Channel 6, mostly out of habit.  And
Doug Rafferty on Channel 13 drives me nuts.  But I'm
surprised that the Portland-Bangor simulcast has not
hurt their ratings.  The news in the morning, at noon,
at 11, and on the weekends is broadcast in both Bangor
and Portland.  As a result, the content has to cover
both areas.  It drives me nuts to hear about car
accidents in Bangor.  But I still watch so I guess I
answered my own question!
