The stations in markets currently served by AT&T U-verse include WPIX (New York/CW), KTLA (Los Angeles/CW), KDAF (Dallas-Fort Worth/CW), KHCW (Houston/CW), WXIN (Indianapolis/FOX), WTTV/WTTK (Indianapolis/CW), KSWB (San Diego/CW), WTIC (Hartford/FOX) and WTXX (Hartford/CW).

"This agreement with Tribune allows AT&T U-verse TV customers to enjoy the variety of entertainment programming from Superstation WGN and the quality local content available on Tribune television stations in our markets across the country," said Dan York, AT&T head of programming. "Our robust and expanding channel lineup gives our customers even more reasons to choose U-verse TV."

"We're pleased to partner with AT&T's exciting new U-verse television service by providing the programming of Superstation WGN," said Bill Shaw, general manager of Superstation WGN. "AT&T customers will benefit from the network's diverse family-friendly programming and the excitement of live sports, featuring the Chicago Cubs, White Sox and Bulls."
