WUTB is the My Network TV affiliate for the Baltimore, Maryland market. Owned by Deerfield Media and controlled by Sinclair, it broadcasts on digital channel 26.4, a subchannel of Fox affiliate WBFF/channel 45, mapped via PSIP as 24.1. It is part of a virtual triopoly with WBFF and Cunningham-owned CW affiliate WNUV/channel 54 (which Sinclair manages under an LMA).

The station signed on in 1967 as independent WMET and closed five years later due to financial issues. It returned as a religious independent, WJKL, in 1985, then changed calls to WHSW in 1986, airing programming from Home Shopping Network. In 1998 it became WUTB, Baltimore's UPN affiliate. In 2006, UPN and the WB melded into the CW, which went to WNUV. WUTB picked up My Network TV affiliation. In 2016, WUTB sold its spectrum in the incentive auction and chose to channel share with WBFF.
